To the Editor:

Lots of good stuff in your Feb. 26 issue.  I especially enjoyed the Guilderland service dogs article and the tributes to Roger the Sheriff.

It was also interesting to see poet/philosopher Dennis Sullivan's take on schadenfreude (I always read “Blotters and Dockets” — is that schadenfreude?) and T. McFadden's letter about global warming.

The Old Men of the Mountain column is always a favorite, as is Frank Palmeri and Sue Kidder and her seniors.  Jo Prout did a good job with the Voorheesville Library anniversary, a subject near to my heart as a long-time VPL employee, now retired in Florida.

I like keeping up with news of the ’hood — sorry about the carwash fire. So keep those Voorheesville articles coming and thanks to Jim and Jimmy, Melissa and Wanda, and your staff for producing a great small hometown newspaper.  Thanks also to my sister who sends me a subscription to The AE for Christmas.
