Infernal Gadgets

I am writing this letter to ask all of you to agree with me that the gasoline-powered leaf blower is, perhaps, one of the worst inventions of the past 75 years. It would be fitting if it was invented in Japan in 1947 as retribution for the U.S. atomic bombing of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I don’t want to diminish those horrific acts, but it was invented in Japan around 1977. I do think the time has come to do something about the noise, pollution, and to free the poor operators from the health risks imposed by ... 10 Nov 2025 by Staff Writer

Baffling Decision

Southampton Town Democratic Chairman Gordon Herr picked the wrong election cycle to sit out. His baffling decision to not run a second Democrat Town Council candidate came amid a blue wave that swept across eastern Long Island, New Jersey and Virginia — a wave that carried all five Democratic Town Trustees candidates in Southampton Town and even ousted experienced and well-liked Trustee President Scott Horowitz. Town Democrats should have been prepared for a pendulum swing like this, yet they weren’t. Against that backdrop, Herr’s refusal — which he denies was part of any backroom deal — to field a second ... by Staff Writer
