Need for Speed

We see lots of fancy cars in summertime, but the fall is when they really peak. Whether you like cars or not, you’ll find yourself stunned, slack-jawed, as one after the other a roaring blur of outrageous colors goes past. Noisier, faster and more expensive than a carnival ride, these cars both incite and satisfy, for almost anyone, a childlike thrill of fear and delight. Stand near the rumble of a powerful motor and you’ll feel it consume your own heartbeat. These cars, though many are modern, have history here. The spectacle of road racing belies the humble farming roots ... 27 Sep 2023 by Marilee Foster

In Their Footsteps

“To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born,” the Roman philosopher and statesman Cicero said, “is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?” We study history but often focus on events writ large — wars, world leaders, towering figures and events — but often remain far too ignorant of those who walked the same patch of earth before we were born, the men and women who made the more modest history of where we live. We are ... by Editorial Board

Shabby College

In 1997, my husband and I happily began our homeownership in Southampton. We were immediately pleased with how friendly everyone was. My new neighbors rang the bell to say “welcome.” Back then, Southampton was proudly a well-established college town. Then, suddenly, it was not. SUNY Southampton officials were cruelly and cavalierly unceremonious in closing the campus, and her students were given a very brief period to relocate. I was shocked and disappointed for the students — and for us, as a welcoming community. I was ashamed of how the students were just dumped out. I remain deeply ashamed of SUNY’s ... by Staff Writer

The Sniff Test

A candidate can only get the Working Families Party endorsement and appear on its ballot line if they agree with a Working Families Party platform. The Working Families party platform includes a commitment to defunding and abolishing police, raising the age of criminal culpability, cashless bail to diminish the incarceration of dangerous criminals, and prioritizing criminals over victim’s rights. I don’t know about you, but I find this very troubling. We only have to look at cities where these policies have been implemented to see the chaos and misery occurring as public safety is cast to the wind. Crime is ... by Staff Writer

Next Logical Step

It would seem to be a no-brainer: a Suffolk County “Law To Establish Requirements for Automatic Irrigation Systems,” as it’s titled. Who hasn’t had the experience of driving in Suffolk County on a rainy day and encountering a sprinkler system spraying water into the air even though it’s raining? The bill authored by Legislator Al Krupski of Peconic begins by declaring that “Suffolk County’s aquifer system is not infinite and is the only source of water available to meet the needs of the county’s population.” And, it continues, “according to the Suffolk County Water Authority, approximately 70 percent of the ... by Karl Grossman
