Where has common sense gone on signage?

Editor’s Corner by John Hendler My youngest heads off to college next week and I’m wondering when the realization that I’m an empty-nester will strike. Will it be when we pack up the car? When I drive away from her dorm? When I walk into the my house? When I finish writing this column? I’ll be honest: Over the past few weeks, I have done my best to live in a state of denial that this is actually going to happen. That has forced me to live in the moment and has also cut down on my anxiety about this milestone in my life and my daughter’s. But, as I write this, the emotions of the big day are now bubbling to the surface and I sit here lamenting where all the years went and if I did all I could as a father for my daughter during the past 18 years. When I left home for school 31 years ago, I was so excited to leave that I didn’t give my parents’ emotions nary a thought as to how my absence would affect them. What goes around inevitably comes around. The day I left home, all I can remember was my father (a man of very few words) telling me was not to pick up hitchhikers on my 1,000-mile drive to Washington, D.C. On our front porch, my mother gave me a hug and whispered “Godspeed” in my ear. And then I was off. Yes, I would return for the holidays and one summer, but essentially, I never lived with my parents again. Unlike my parents, in recent days, I have talked (lectured?) to my daughter (ad nauseam) about her leaving to go off to college to the point where I know she’s tuned me out. But, I can’t help myself; I can sense that the chapter of me as full-time father is coming to a close, and I’m trying to get my last at bats in. I know a new chapter awaits the both of us and I’m excited at the possibilities of what that will bring, but I can’t help but think that I am just another step closer to becoming less important in the eyes of my daughter. But, that’s how life goes. I believe my job as parent was to raise kids who are now able to leave the nest and branch out on their own. As sad and tearful as I am at this moment, I am proud that I raised two kids that will be independent and are excited to see what’s out there in this world. I guess I did all I could as a father these past two decades and for that, I am thankful and privileged to have had the opportunity to watch my children grow into the adults they are becoming. Godspeed, Nina. And remember, don’t pick up hitchhikers. Until next week, may the good news be yours.

This letter was submitted last week, prior to the article in the ad-visor&chronicle on the pedestrian signs downtown Marshall, but the letter was held due to space limitations. To the Editor: In case you are wondering why the state is having difficulty trying to figure out how to come up with the money to fix our roads, perhaps you need to take a trip to Marshall to help you understand the waste that goes along with the Michigan Department of Transportation who will be in charge of fixing these roads. Let me start by saying, I can’t figure out who’s to blame here as I can find no one who will take responsibility for this fiasco of the new signage at the crosswalks in Marshall. I’ve lived here for over 40 years and I’ve never seen

such nonsense in my life. This is a town of just over 7,000 people. Why do we deserve so much unwanted attention? If MDOT or Marshall had only taken the money they spent on all these crosswalks for pedestrians, manpower, etc. to invest in repaving W. Michigan Ave., it would have been a much better investment. We live in a friendly community where you see motorists yield to pedestrians trying to cross at the fountain or elsewhere all the time. As far as the other pedestrian signs go, let me ask this: Marshall is a small town which has three stop lights. Why don’t these people walk to the light to cross? These lights are not that far apart and maybe they could even burn calories along the way. Novel idea! Almost makes you wonder why MDOT/Marshall doesn’t

pave the whole street and make downtown a mall. What about events like Cruise at the Fountain. Is there going to be enough room to get through? Why not take away everything the taxpaying citizens love? I would guess the people who came up with this idea are the same ones who thought our traffic lights should be changed because it was so busy during certain hours thereby leaving the people on the east end of town not being able to get out of their driveways and having the stoplights set whereby you can’t cross the street in enough time or setting there for four minutes waiting for the light to change. In addition, they must be the ones to come up with the electronic boards on the interstate that tells us how far it is to Kalamazoo when GPS is so preva-

lent. Shouldn’t we, the taxpayers, have the right to vote on these issues? Another question—why weren’t we advised of these changes in Marshall prior to implementing? Guess I already know the answer to this. Where has common sense gone? Not at MDOT nor Marshall. Someone should be fired over this ridiculous waste of taxpayer money. As my Mom use to say to me, “God gave you a brain - use it.” Somebody better wake up soon. We ordinary law-abiding citizens have had it with all the games that are being played. Ever wonder why Donald Trump is leading in the polls? The minions are taking over. Danielle Streeter, Marshall

Help us create a world without Alzheimer’s To the Editor: Alzheimer’s disease is the most expensive disease in the United States, devastating the lives of persons with the disease and their families. To end Alzheimer’s disease, research is desperately needed. Currently, only $521 million dollars of public funds are spent annually on this disease, in comparison with $5 billion for heart disease and $6 billion for cancer. As a Calhoun County resident concerned about this epidemic, I am proud to support the Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s to be held Saturday, Aug. 29 in Marshall. The Alzheimer’s Association is the world’s largest non-profit organization supporting Alzheimer’s research. This is the only

event in Calhoun County that supports the Alzheimer’s Association and research with local, national and international impact. These funds also go toward supporting education and support for persons with Alzheimer’s and their families here in Calhoun County. Donating to a charity organization is an important step for all of us to give back to others. However, it is critical to know exactly how our contributions are being spent. One way to do this is to validate an organization’s expenditures such as through the Better Business Bureau at http://www.give.org. All non-profit or charitable organizations for Alzheimer’s or other causes should be able to open their books, providing clear accounting for how funds

are being spent. The Alzheimer’s Association exceeds established watchdog standards, allocating 78 percent of their funds to research, care and support. Calhoun County residents have an opportunity to join thousands of others from across the nation and help wipe out this horrible disease. Please visit www.alz.org/walk or e-mail walk manager Kristin Burt at kburt@alz.org. The walk starts at 9 a.m. at Stuart’s Landing in Marshall. Even if you cannot be at the Walk, please consider making a donation, no matter how small at www.alz.org. Help us create a world without Alzheimer’s. Maureen Mickus, Marshall

52nd Home Tour weekend will be Sept. 12-13 To the Editor: The Marshall Historical Society will soon be presenting its 52nd Home Tour weekend, the longest running such event in the entire state of Michigan. This event draws visitors from a large area of our state and beyond. It serves as the major fund-raising source to fulfill its primary function, which is to main-

tain and operate our three historic museums: the Honolulu House, the Marshall Museum at the GAR Hall and the Capitol Hill School. The basic cost of operation for these buildings is about $50,000 per year. We receive no tax dollars from residents or businesses and so must continually rely on membership dues, donations and fundraisers.

The volunteer hours required to put the Home Tour together each year is a real tribute to the spirit of this community, and I extend my appreciation to all who have contributed their time and effort. To the residents of Marshall, I encourage you to take pride in your historic town, welcome our weekend guests and please join

us in a Celebration of Home Tour Picnic on Sunday, Sept. 13 at the Green St. parking lot. Everything is in place for this to be a memorable community get-together: good friends, good food and good music. Jeff Greene, Chairman, Home Tour 2015

Would eminent domain work against ‘greedy’ companies? To the Editor: Ever heard of the term “eminent domain?” This translates to “the benefit of many over the detriment of a few.” It usually is applied at an airport that has become congested from a large volume of passengers. So, it has decided to bring in larger planes, so the runways must be lengthened. The problem, then, is houses and/or businesses stand in the way. Eminent domain says the large number of passengers’ plight exceeds the homes or businesses needs that are in the way of the runway expansion. The people in the homes or businesses are paid what a court decides is “fair market value” and are sent packing, regardless of how long they’ve been at their location. Eminent domain also can apply to a congested two lane highway which exceeds the rights of the homes and/or businesses that have to be relocated because of the highway expansion. Could we use eminent domain against the gas/oil companies? Currently very

few people benefit from the outrageous profits of the oil companies. Ten percent of the oil produced in this country comes from federal lands. Technically, this extracted oil belongs to each and every American. How much does the average American benefit from this oil that took tens of millions of years to make? Not much. If the gas/oil companies were taken through the eminent domain process the outrageous profits that are being made could be used for this country’s crumbling roads and bridges, benefiting hundreds of millions of Americans. I know some of you are thinking, “That’s a slippery slope you’re on Doug. Who would be next for eminent domain?” How about a pharmaceutical company that wants to charge an uninsured terminal cancer patient $500 for a single pill that they need to stay alive and the production cost for the pill is 50 cents. Yes, they too could be in the crosshairs of eminent domain. Or an insurance company that demands that you

never ever be late on paying an insurance premium, but when your family suffers a calamity, they make you jump through numerous hoops to get a claim or deny the claim altogether because of some fine print in the policy. Yes, they too could be a victim of eminent domain. This letter is not an attack on capitalism; it is a practice that has made this country great and truly the land of opportunity. There’s a line between making a “just” profit or gouging, and some of the mentioned companies have repeatedly crossed the line. Of course, we could just hope the companies would do the right thing, but after what they’ve been getting away with, it is unlikely that they will ever deviate from their current behavior. Would eminent domain work against some of the most “greedy” companies? We have nothing to lose and everything to gain by trying. Doug Vanderford, Homer
