By Clifton Pye
April 27, 2009 in print edition on A7
To the editor: It is a little ironic to publish an editorial about the misbehavior of local bicyclists on Earth Day. True, cyclists sometimes fail to obey traffic regulations, but then so do drivers. Scapegoating all cyclists for the misdeeds of a few sets a bad example. Anyone using a public thoroughfare must realize that a moment of inattention could lead to a serious accident and even death. We are all in this world together and a little tolerance on the part of everyone on the roads would make our town a safer and better place to live.

Twenty-five years ago most of us hadn’t heard of pesto. Today, it’s ubiquitous enough to adorn pizzas, burgers, even potato chips.
