SOUNDS OF SILENCE REDUX

     As the annoyance with David Israel grows, with his lack of proper attention to the  needs of the residents, both now and in the future, we wonder how long we have to put up with him and the incompetence, the dangerous incompetence, the selfishness of trying to implement his, and only his, wants and desires.
     We already have lost millions of dollars. We have lost in the quality of our infrastructure. We have lost our media and the heights to which it had risen. Once we had a great Channel 63 and now it is a bulletin board. Once we had a great newspaper, The Reporter, and now we have The Rag, a useless piece of several pieces of paper that have lots of restaurant reviews, lots of cooking recipes, information on how to buy Indian clothes, and biased one sided partisan presentation of some issues in the Village and G-d forbid they should ever print the other side! 
     And now, welcome to the new look of David's purported Village blog. Lots of pretty pictures and colorful ads. Hey, I love rock and roll and would probably go, but this info could be found elsewhere. I believe there are far more important topics to be addressed. So why are they not? Because the man and his advisers - or boss - have nothing constructive to say, nothing helpful, nothing that can be believed so instead they work in secret, in an opaque setting so that they can spring their wasteful projects on us and hope they get it thru.
     Well, delegates, this has got to stop or else we will find ourselves in a bind that will indeed be extremely difficult to undo. Term limits. A strong coalition against him and his henchmen and his policies - or lack thereof. A strong delegate assembly where questions are raised and answers demanded. He has been told that he may not call 911 for his stupid reasons, for the fact that he doesn't know how to properly chair, for the fact that he cannot abide any opposition and differing viewpoints, so have at him and his wasteful projects. Have at him and Ed Black for their ridiculous contracts such a the security one that we are having to deal with.
    Stand up for our rights and let the noise begin. No more silence. We demand our rights be respected. We demand that our needs be addressed.
     One way for us to end the silence in the assembly is to select better delegates, one who can think and understand their responsibility to vote as the association wishes, not to vote for poor choices because they are intimidated or because they are promised little fiefdoms. WE must make sure of whom we elect to the boards and whom we appoint as our delegates. Get rid of the deadwood and use the wonderful storage of intelligence and experience we have in this Village.

By the way, sorry for the late entry, but I am in Pittsburgh now, an interesting city, and my little ones here have first priority of course. Important topics come up, such as new sports equipment, books to be bought, clothes that are absolutely necessary, and of course, more super hero figures and accessories. But I will find the time to write, albeit not as early as I usually do. Thanks for your patience.
