The Editor's Notepod, Sat., Nov. 14, 2009

State: this is the season for deer strikes on the highways. Between 15,000 and 18,000 die in Connecticut annually, a truly horrifying number. This is the mating season for the animals and they tend to move more than at other times, making them particularly susceptible to accidents on the highway – and, of course, drivers are at peril almost as much as the animals. Drive slower after dusk and be alert.

Southington: good news on the goat situation. There may be a way to grandfather in the keeping of goats under the zoning laws.
