The Editor's Notepod, Mon., Sept. 28, 2009

Wallingford: The North Farms Volunteer Fire Department, one of the town’s active centers of community involvement, is always interested in new members. It’s a matter of public safety and of good comradeship, and it’s a little hard to see why this sort of organization should be thought of as a negative in any neighborhood.

Meriden: Beisbol y Biblioteca, otherwise known as Baseball and Library (the phrase isn’t as catchy in English, but no matter). The idea of psychotherapist Charles Kaplan, its plan is to capitalize on the interest in sports and translate that into an interest in reading.

Wallingford: although the rules which seem to determine which football games show up on the television screen are complicated, we suppose someone has to figure out a protocol for making decisions. If mistakes leave fans dissatisfied too often, the people making the choices need to have another look at the system.
