You are so right

You are so right. Without cell service and high speed internet we will fall off the map. Business generation and second home sales will completely disappear.

Warning: Possible Bait and Switch - Telephone offer. Wed. 18 January 2012

A call offering a drawing for a $15,000 makeover of your house: Doors,
windows, gutters, and more. Man said his name was Lonnie and his
partner was Peggy.

"Could some one come by TODAY ? "
This was definitely a high pressure sales pitch, and I had to fight
him off on the phone, but felt this whole area might be vulnerable.

The supervisor identified his company as Barrier Window, said there
were many locations, but refused to give a physical location.

Forwarded in good faith for Copake community.

WE CANNOT GET OUT OF OUR OWN WAY---WHY ???-

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN ADVOCATE OR RECOMMEND A COUNTRY WIDE BROADBAND SYSTEM. YOU MAKE A STRONG CASE, VIA THOMAS FRIEDMAN'S ARTICLE FOR SUCH A PLAN. YOU INDICATE THAT TOWNS LIKE COPAKE WILL HAVE A HARD TIME EXISTING, GROWING AND STAYING IN TOUCH WITH THE REST OF THE COUNTRY AND THEIR WORLD AND WE CANNOT EVEN GET A CELL PHONE TOWER COMPLETED. SOMETIME AGO YOU WROTE A LENGTHY DISCOURSE ON COMMUNICATIONS AND THEIR IMPORTANCE TO THE WORLD. I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT CELL PHONES HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR OVER 25 YEARS --AND YET WE STILL WAIT FOR GOOD, CLEAR, RFELIABLE RECEPTION. GET WITH IT MR. SACKS---THE TOWN OF COPAKE IN STUCK IN A POOL OF CLAY AND MUD--WE CANNOT GET OUT OF OUR OWN WAY---WHY ???---BECAUSE SOME OF OUR NEIGHBORS WILL LOSE THEIR VIEW---NONSENSE---HAVE AN INTERNET SYSTEM, ARE YOU KIDDING?>??---WE STILL WANT TO HAVE SECOND VOTES OF IMPORTANT ISSUES---THIS IS A FABULOUS TOWN AND A CHARMING AREA---THAT WANTS TO BRING BACK THE BUGGY WHIP, CLOTH DIAPERS, AND TYPEWRITERS---GOD HELP US ALL !@!!!!!
