The Editor's Notepod, Sat., Mar. 21, 2009

Meriden: Firefighters organize against closure of the Broad Street Firehouse. A logical move. Union seems right.

Southington: Recovery Wing, Inc. to present Monday at the Grange a program on rehabilitating injured songbirds. I think this is a delightful occupation.

Meriden: Murphy announces $237K grant and city prepares to move forward with it. I trust this is just one of at least several segments of the aid package from Uncle Sam.

Wallingford: With development encouraged around the train station, the place where the train actually stopped might be moved. Sound odd? Well, consider that when the station's location was originally settled, there were no cars or trucks, only horses.

Meriden: cutting teachers and/or sports programs. If it comes down to it, nobody wants to decide this and take the political heat. School board might put it to the public. While they're at it, ask it the public wants to pay taxes to cover the cost.
