Letters to the Editor

To the editor:
On Tuesday, November 8 I’ll be casting my ballot for Trey Stewart to serve as our next State Representative.

To the editor:
It is time that everyone should know what Microsoft has already done to unsuspecting people’s computers with their unauthorized Windows 10 upgrade which uninstalled the previous Windows operating system, disabled the security, ruined the tower, and disconnected the printer, leaving a mess which was costing a lot of time and money to straighten out everything.

To the editor:
In this contentious election cycle it is more important than ever that we send to Augusta candidates who cast each and every vote in the best interest of the majority of the constituents back home and doing so with a willingness to work with others in a bipartisan manner.

To the editor:
For several reasons, Dustin White will once again have my vote for State Representative on November 8th. As one of Rep. White’s constituents, I have called him and emailed him many times.

To the editor:
I am concerned that the “Maine media in general” is showing a bias with the referendum legalizing recreational pot.

To the editor:
I want to share a physician/clinical point of view regarding the proposed new 9-1-1 service to be provided through the City of Presque Isle.

To the editor:

It is with great excitement that I encourage you to vote ”Yes” on citizen’s initiative No. 2, “An Act To Establish The Fund to Advance Public Kindergarten to Grade 12 Education.” The passage of this question will enact real and lasting funding of public education in our state, allowing countless schools to provide fair learning opportunities for all students.

To the editor:

I am concerned that the “Maine media in general” is showing a bias with the referendum legalizing recreational pot. Most of the articles in the Portland paper are pro-pot and the Press Herald last week cited their support of the measure. A local TV news report recently was titled “Medical professionals in support of the referendum on marijuana use” and then went on to cite only a handful of medical people.

To the editor:

The community is getting together to help out a young man Chris Swallow who was recently hurt in a tractor accident in Hodgdon. He has been from Houlton Regional Hospital to EMMC for surgery then to TAMC for rehab. He has many more visits with followups and more rehab. His wife (who at the time was also home recovering from lung surgery) and his two young girls are by his side daily.

To the editor:

An author, Ursula Le Guin, wrote, “Story is our only boat for sailing on the river of time.” She may have referred to time travel, as in going back centuries, but today I write about going back only to my childhood. Porter, my father, told me just two bedtime stories.

This one was always first. A 14-year-old boy was walking down a long road when he became hungry. He knocked on the door of the first house he saw and asked if he could have something to eat. “Why, yes,” said the farmer’s wife.
