The Editor's Notepod, Sat., Apr. 10, 2010

Meriden: Theft of copper flashing at the Quinnipiac River Watershed Association HQ this week. It’s not the first theft from the QRWA, nor is it the first local theft of copper, but it’s a pretty unattractive habit.

While seeing the roots of your family tree, with helpful instruction from ancestry.com or with encouragement from the Southington Genealogical Society of the local history librarian at the Meriden Public Library, it’s good to remember that not all those roots turn out to be royalty or whatever one happens to be hoping for.

Southington: it doesn’t sound like a very good plan to cut Calendar House’s Dial-a-Ride program money until state funding is secured. Usually, state matching grants depend on local funding and such a decision, besides being unpopular, could leave the program in a catch-22 position.

Wallingford: signals are that the Internet is going to remain fairly remote from town hall offices and from services residents might want to access on-line. A pity.
