questions on replacement for Mike the Gardener

Thanks for your thoughts and concerns for Mike and our parks dept.workers and of course the park!!!!

We are in the midst of a budgetary crisis so I don't think there will be a replacement anytime soon and of course the concerns in terms of "green issues" or lack there of, may amount to "lay-offs" so if you haven't already you may want to email the parks dept commissioner and praise our hard working people that contribute to the beauty of Tompkins!

Thanks for your caring and that is when the EastVillage is a truly a village rather than NYU-Ville dorm fodder or some "strain" of facists that spend their free time deciding who is and isn't a real east villager.

My thoughts always return to the American Indians. One of our locals and he is a senior got his lease renewed so he is safe for now from eviction and he is very excited about joining a tribal dance.

He told me he will see me in the circle.
