Thank you for stating the obvious, Shamarie, on snow removal

Comments about: Open minds? To date, no new method beyond pushing the snow

By Victoria Pike
Personal Commentary

We have one of the best snow removal crews in the state and have had for many years so we need to appreciate them instead of put them down. Just as Shamarie says, they have priority roads such as the parkway to clear first. You can't be everywhere at the same time. I personally want to thank each and everyone of the crew for putting in long hours clearing the roads. And they are still out there clearing roads. One passed as I was coming to the house from feeding the girls.

My husband works in Somerset and there are times when he goes in at 4 am when other counties haven't touched their roads and the parkway is already cleared to the Adair County line.

Jarrett Miller: We have to do better as a community

This community has become nothing more than a place to sleep, and anytime someone says "We have to do better" they are instantly the enemy. - JARRETT MILLER
Comments re article 64832 Expresses often overlooked values inherent in this Community

By Jarrett Miller
Personal commentary

Once again I find myself attacked. That is their opinion, however; remember that unless the people of this community accept change, keep up with the modern world, expand their worldview and accept other values and opinions, this community will get more of the same. No jobs, no stores, no entertainment and theaters, no higher culture. The children will continue to leave as quickly as they turn 18. Columbia will become nothing more than a community for retirees. Even those coming to this area "from off" are predominately retired or near retirement. The community will not continue long with this as its pattern.

Expresses often overlooked values inherent in this Community

Comments re article 64826 A response to Jarrett Miller criticism of local people

By Jon Halsey

Even tho' I am a carper, niggler, and hypercritic of the first order, I agree with Mr. Troutwine completely.

Sometimes it takes those of us "from off" to express the often overlooked values inherent in this Community but more especially the danger of losing what would never be recovered if we abandon the principles that make us who we are.

There are many of us who have fled our beloved homelands because the leaders of those communities forgot who they were.

Mr. Troutwine sounds like a person who speaks from experience. In my estimation, experience always trumps emotion.

Open minds? To date, no new method beyond pushing the snow

Comments re article 64825 Jarrett Miller says community should open its mind

By Shamarie Claiborne
Personal Commentary

I for one have lived numerous other places. I was born and for the most part raised in Columbia and then went out to see the big world. Enjoyed my adventures in Fredericksburg VA, Washington D.C., Atlanta GA, and Nashville TN. In the end I returned to the life I prefer here in rural Kentucky.

As for cleaning the roads. It is simple math. x number of workers times y number of miles of roads = z number of hours to get the job done. I will say I am thrilled it is 10:47 am on the day it actually snowed and the snow plow just went through The Holler . . . Awesome progress! I am confident they will get everywhere, they always do. But it will take time.

As for opening peoples minds -- I have found that sugar catches more flies than vinegar. Yet, I agree people as a whole are limited in their views, not only here but everywhere. And in an idealistic world we should always be open to new methods and ideas. But to date I have not heard of any other method of snow removal other than pushing the plow......... --Shamarie Claiborne

P.S. Be really glad you don't live in Atlanta GA and it come a snow. It is like the apocalypse has begun. . . --SC

A response to Jarrett Miller criticism of local people

'Every time a government gives you more of something, they always take more of something else away. I chose Adair County/Columbia for a reason, and I pray it doesn't change. I like it just the way it is! - BILL TROUTWINE
Comments in response to Jarrett Miller says community should open its mind

By Bill Troutwine
Personal Commentary

Mr. Miller, I have seen a good portion of this world, and lived most of my life far from here. I am here by choice. I chose Adair County (Columbia area) because it has far more to offer than you realize. For instance, the cost of living here is far less than most places. The freedom we have in comparison is far beyond other communities. If you decide to display a flag in your front yard no one is going to come by and tell you to take it down or go to jail because you are violating some stupid ordinance.

I value my personal freedoms much more than I am concerned that the road crew took two or three hours longer clearing the roads than the road crews in Louisville or Lexington or even E-town. The larger a city/county is the more resources they have to offer. The big question is how much are you willing to give up. Every time a government gives you more of something, they always take more of something else away. I chose Adair County/Columbia for a reason, and I pray it doesn't change. I like it just the way it is! - BILL TROUTWINE

Jarrett Miller says community should open its mind

'The problem is that many people have never seen the world outside this little community and have developed the idea that Columbia is the best at doing everything. If they would open their minds to new ideas and study how other communities do things, the possibilities would be endless.' - JARRETT MIller

By Jarrett Miller
Personal opinions of the writer

Everyone wanted to criticize me for implying that the road crews don't do a that good of a job. But, just look at the front page of Columbia Magazine this morning. Photos of roads not cleared, roads closed, State Police calling for help spotting stranded motorist. Sure, the state road crews are doing a great job. (Sarcasm Intended) The problem is that many people have never seen the world outside this little community and have developed the idea that Columbia is the best at doing everything. If they would open their minds to new ideas and study how other communities do things, the possibilities would be endless. --Jarrett Miller
