The Editor's Notepod, Wed., June 24, 2009

Wallingford: Choate Rosemary Hall presents its plan. Reception might be described as cool.

Meriden: The situation with Protein Sciences is wonderful with the contract for the flu vaccine, but muddied with the lawsuit by Emergent.

Area: Now the nutrient towns must arrange to be removed at their sewage treatment plants is phosphorus. All the local plants are along the Quinnipiac, that much abused river, and it will be good to get this completed.

Meriden/State: Republican senators call for probe of Tom Gaffey. A better plan would be to find a local Republican candidate and take him on over the issue, rather than atempting to remove him via legal action. They’re welcome to debate the punishment for violations of the election law financing rules till the cows come home, and they’re certainly welcome to nominate someone and to hammer the issue. Failing that, what’s the point of removing someone by legal action? It’s like George W winning the 200 election with the Supreme Court’s help.

Cheshire: The artificial turf field is back, this time with the help of private funding, to be raised. Well, maybe. Is that a good thing? Conclusion has been reached that the turf is not dangerous; folks are upset that games have had to be played elsewhere because grass fields are too soggy. Whatever happened to simply cancelling a game?
