A North Shore-based group has answered the county’s calls to revitalize the site of a former landfill in Kings Park. The Suffolk County Landbank Corp., which is a not-for-

profit entity that works with the county to redevelop tax-delinquent properties, put out a request for proposals to completely rejuvenate eight brownfield spots across Suffolk, including the former Steck-Philbin Landfill on Old Northport Road in Kings

Park. This week, Stony Brook’s Ecological Engineering of Long Island answered with a proposal to build Long Island’s first community-owned solar farm. Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) said the county wanted to team up with the pri-

vate sector to revitalize the various brownfield sites and described them as blights on their respective communities. Shawn Nuzzo, president of Ecological Engineering of Long Island, said his group’s LaNDFILL continued on page a9

Smithtown set for students’ internal email system By alex petroSki

Smithtown students have been told for a long time their personal phones, tablets and other electronic devices are not allowed in school. In April, that is going to change. Assistant superintendent for instruction for the district, Jennifer Bradshaw, announced at a board of education meeting on March 22 Smithtown will be opening free internal Wi-Fi for students and allow access via personal electronic devices beginning next month. In addition, every student will be assigned an internal email address that will allow messages

to be sent from student to student, or student to teacher. The new initiative is for students in grades six through `12. “This is going to increase their ability to work collaboratively and communicate with teachers and other students about the work that they’re doing in school,” Bradshaw said on March 22. “Again, it’s entirely internal. There’s not going to be any access to outside email accounts. I’m pretty excited about this expansion … it’s a very logical next step.” Bradshaw said a Google for Education application would host the email addresses. Google for Educa-

assistant Superintendent for instruction Jennifer Bradshaw

tion was designed to “provide easy tools to engage students anytime, anywhere, on any device,” according to its website. Bradshaw also said the district already uses Google

Classroom, which provides applications to allow teachers to assign work and for students to submit assignments as a collaborative tool. EMaIL continued on page a2

The Wi-Fi access will be filtered, as is Internet access on existing school computers and devices. Social media sites and applications Facebook and Snapchat will be blocked, though Twitter, Instagram and YouTube will be allowed for educational use. Bradshaw said use of this technology for educational purposes is a valuable tool for students to learn. “It’s used in at least three-fourths of the top 20 schools that we send our students off to,” Bradshaw said about applications through Google for Education. “It’s really great preparation for them, but beyond that it’s really great for collaboration now.” School board President Christopher Alcure expressed excitement about the possibilities technology present as a resource for education. “It’s fantastic that we’re getting them started young,” Alcure said, and added his sixth-grader frequently has to submit assignments through Google Classroom. “I’m all for it.”

In October, about 20 students from Smithtown and Kings Park schools were suspended when explicit content involving three underage students from unspecified districts was spread electronically across the two districts. The incident, referred to as a sexting scandal, occurred off of school grounds. Two 14-year-old Smithtown High School boys were arrested and charged with disseminating indecent material to minors and promoting a sexual performance by a child as a result of the incident. “Part of our responsibility as a school district is to teach digital citizenship — how to use electronic tools responsibly as well as productively,” Bradshaw said in an email Monday. “It is part of our greater mission to create responsible citizens. We will, of course, support this expansion with continued education about how to use the tools effectively and responsibly.” The district already has a section in its code of conduct about the acceptable use of technology, which Bradshaw said students would be required to agree to each time they attempt to gain access to the school’s network.

Activists flock to Flanagan for education funding By ALex PetrOSki

A small group of people carried the voices of thousands of New Yorkers standing up for students across the state. Activists representing four New York State and Long Island groups in support of education funding — especially for low-income districts — dropped off a petition with more than 9,000 signatures from across New York to state Sen. John Flanagan’s (REast Northport) office in Smithtown last Wednesday. Those in support of the petition pledged their support for state Assemblymen Carl Heastie’s (DBronx) “millionaire tax bill,” which was introduced in February and proposed an increase in taxes to those who earn upward of $1 million annually. The petition was also in support of a full phase-in of the money still owed to pay off the Campaign for Fiscal Equity resolution, which ensured that $5.5 billion would be committed to mostly high-need districts in 2007, and was supposed to take effect over the course of four years. This was a result of a lawsuit started in 1993, which eventually reached the New York State Court of Appeals, which ruled that high-need districts were being neglected. About $781 million of that money is still owed to Long Island schools, according to

advocates of the resolution. The groups represented at Flanagan’s office included New York Communities for Change, Jobs with Justice, Long Island Progressive Coalition and Alliance for Quality Education as well as community members from across Long Island. Flanagan was not in his office, and a legal aide who took the petition declined to comment. “We need to address the emotional, physical, social, needs of the child and the Senate has shown that they are not caring right now with the budget they have proposed,” said Blanca Villanueva, an organizer from Alliance for Quality Education. “We need them to represent us because they represent all of Long Island and all of New York State.” The petition was also delivered to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) New York City office, Villanueva said. Flanagan has said in the past that he is against the millionaire tax bill. He did not respond to a request for comment regarding the petition. “As a constituent of Sen. Flanagan’s, I am calling on him to support the millionaire’s tax,” said Olivia Santoro of the Long Island Progressive Coalition. “I valued my public school education and I want the same opportunity for students growing up in his district and across Long Island. That means that we need to fully fund our schools.” On March 21, a group of about 40

wealthy New Yorkers in conjunction with the Fiscal Policy Institute and the Responsible Wealth Project sent an open letter to Cuomo in support of Heastie’s millionaire tax bill. Those in support included Steven C. Rockefeller and Abigail Disney, among others. Flanagan’s proposed 2016-17 budget would eliminate the Gap Elimination Adjustment, which has cost districts across the state millions of dollars over the past several years in an effort to close a deficit. It also included almost $600 million for education, though Villanueva said at Flanagan’s office that it was not enough. “We’ve got this Campaign for Fiscal Equity that we’ve been working very hard to support and we hope that [Sen. Flana-

gan] can stand with the students in making sure that they receive a quality education and the funding that’s necessary in order to deliver that,” Melissa Figueroa of New York Communities for Change said last Wednesday. “We need this support, and I hope that he gets down with us.” Figueroa is also running for a school board seat in the Hempstead school district. Signs held by those in support of the petition read, “Stand up 4 kids, NOT billionaires,” “Sen. Flanagan, who do you represent?” and “Millionaires Tax: Raise taxes on the 1% by 1% to raise billions for public school education.” The petition was launched on www.ColorOfChange.org, an organization dedicated to fighting institutional racism.

Bellone delivers environmental boost in Smithtown By Alex Petroski

Suffolk County is making strides toward a greener future. On Monday Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) announced upgrades designed for energy efficiency to several county buildings, including key spots in Smithtown, that should save taxpayers more than $3 million annually. Improvements were made to the H. Lee Dennison building in Hauppauge, where the press conference was held, the Board of Elections in Yaphank, the Riverhead Criminal Courts Building and the 4th Precinct police building among others. The county has invested about $15 million in energy efficiency funding since 2010, Bellone said. “As you know Suffolk County is home to more than 1.5 million people,” Bellone said. “It’s the largest county in the state of New York outside of the city. Of course we provide an array of different services to all of those residents. So many of our operations and facilities are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We’re responsible for the operation of more than 400 facilities. Since we are a large operation, it’s vital for us to embrace as leaders green energy and alternative energy sources in our day-to-day operations.” Some of the upgrades Bellone announced included new boilers, replacement of lights, occupancy sensors, im-

provements to heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems and a photovoltaic system installation for the Board of Elections building that will provide solar energy. Officials from LIPA and PSEG Long Island joined with environmental advocacy groups at the press conference. “Partnering with PSEG Long Island and LIPA and utilizing their rebate programs made these long-term energy savings possible, and they assisted with the up-front cost that might otherwise hold back the important projects that you see displayed here,” Bellone said. Both LIPA and PSEG Long Island incentivize energy efficient upgrades for residents and commercial property owners with rebates. LIPA CEO Tom Falcone and PSEG Long Island COO Dave Daly both praised Bellone for his leadership, and for the example that he has set for New York State. “Suffolk County is demonstrating that local government can take very concrete steps to reduce the carbon footprint, clean the environment and reduce cost for citizens,” Falcone said. Gordian Raacke, the executive director for the nonprofit organization Renewable Energy Long Island commended Bellone for his proactive approach to energy efficiency. “You know when world leaders meet in Paris to talk about what we need to do

to tackle climate change, it is the kind of action that we’re seeing here with the leadership of County Executive Bellone in Suffolk County that they’re talking about,” Raacke said. “All of the talk in the meetings doesn’t do anything. It doesn’t save a ton of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas until a leader steps up to the plate, a leader like Steve Bellone, and makes it happen.” Neal Lewis, the executive director of the Sustainability Institute at Molloy College sent a message to other munici-

palities that have yet to follow Suffolk County’s lead. “Frankly, inaction by elected officials today when it comes to energy issues is wasteful,” Lewis said. “If you have a town hall that still has old lighting systems, old heating systems, old cooling systems — you’re wasting taxpayer dollars. I think that’s an important message.” Bellone said that these projects are just the beginning, and more cost and energy saving upgrades are to come for the county.

POLICE BLOTTER Incidents and arrests from March 19-27

KINGS PARK CLASSROOM TEACHERS ASSOCIATION

Botched burglary A 30-year-old man from Bay Shore entered through the window of a second-floor apartment on Smith Road in Lake Grove at about 8:30 p.m. on March 26, police said. The man escaped the apartment without taking any items. When approached by police, he gave a fake name and date of birth. He was charged with second-degree burglary and false impersonation.

Important Facts on the 2016 Common Core State Tests

Hit-and-run At the intersection of Route 25 and Edgewood Avenue in Smithtown on Jan. 12, a 25-year-old woman from Setauket was involved in a car crash just after 8 p.m., according to police. After the crash, she fled the scene without exchanging contact information with the other driver. She was charged with leaving the scene of an accident with property damage.

• There have been NO meaningful changes to the tests from NYS.

Reckless driver At about 4 p.m. on March 25, a 41-year-old man from Brentwood driving a dump truck crossed the white pavement line on Terry Road in Nesconset, hitting a parked 2014 Dodge with the driver inside. No one was seriously injured. The man was charged with reckless driving.

• Tests are still being made by a test vendor who does not know your child. • The tests are still developmentally inappropriate.

Two guys, too much pot A 21-year-old man from Northport and a 22-year-old man from Islip were seated in a parked vehicle on West Main Street in Kings Park at about 5:30 p.m. on March 26 when, police said, they discovered the pair was in possession of more than 25 grams of marijuana. They were charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of marijuana.

• Students will spend many hours over multiple days testing. • Students are assessed by their teachers constantly. The Common Core State Tests are unnecessary loss of instructional time.

Mind your own business At about 10 p.m. on March 26, police said a 34-year-old man and a 37-yearold man both from Ronkonkoma shouted obscenities and threats at police officers and members of the Lakeland Fire Department near a home on West 3rd Street. They were arrested and charged with second-degree obstruction of governmental administration.

• The tests are not conducive to the learning process. By the time NYS returns the data, the data is useless. • Should you choose to opt your child out of the State Tests, submit your refusal letter as soon as possible.

Saloon patron slugged Just after midnight on March 19 at South Beach Saloon Inc. in Nesconset, a 23-year-old man from Ronkonkoma punched another man in the face, police said. He was charged with thirddegree assault with the intent to cause physical injury.

You’ll shoot your eye out Police said an unknown person damaged the screen of a window at a home on Barley Place in Commack at about 11:30 p.m. on March 26 with a BB gun. Violent encounter An unknown person approached a man at a Smithtown home just after midnight on March 26 carrying a handgun, police said.

Continued from page A1 plan had the potential to pump renewable energy into the Island’s power grid almost immediately. In a statement, Nuzzo described the 6-megawatt solar farm proposal as the largest landfill-to-solar project in New York state that could generate nearly 8 million kilowatt hours of solar electricity in its first year. “Unlike other recent utility solar projects on Long Island – where large developers have proposed to clearcut forests, raze golf courses and blanket farmable lands – our proposal takes a dangerous, long-blighted and otherwise useless parcel and revives it as a communityowned solar farm,” Nuzzo said. “The Kings Park Community Solar Farm will be a quiet, low-intensity land use generating nearly no automobile traffic after installation. As equally important, we will return proper ecosystem services to the site through the ecological restoration technique of phytoremediation — using native, lowlight, low-lying and drought tolerant plants known for their long-term soil restorative properties.” A property is classified as a brownfield if there are complications in expansion or redevelopment based on the possible presence of pollutants or hazardous materials, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The site on Old Northport Road is still owned by Richard and Roslyn Steck, according to the Suffolk County Landbank Corporation Request for Proposals, though penalties and interest bring the total owed in property tax on the roughly 25 acres of land to nearly $1.5 million. The property has been tax delinquent since the Richard Steck, Gerald Philbin Development Co. was found to be using the site to dispose of waste that it did not have a permit for in 1986. It is located less than a half mile east of the Sunken Meadow Parkway and about a half mile west of Indian Head Road. The property is next to the future location of a multisport complex being developed by Prospect Sports Partners LLC. The $33 million plan for the 44-acre site was approved in July 2015. “This has been a long time coming and creating policies and procedures for the Landbank has been an arduous task, but I’m beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel,” Suffolk County Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) said earlier this year when the county sought private sector support to revitalize the site. Cilmi is a member of the board of the Landbank. “Hopefully, soon we’ll see the remediation of this and other properties, which benefits our environment. We’ll put the properties back on the tax rolls, which means millions of dollars of savings for taxpayers.” Nuzzo said Ecological Engineering of Long Island would finance, build and operate the solar farm through a crowdfunding campaign seeking small investments from everyday Suffolk County residents. The plan, he said, would be to sell 25,000 “solar shares” in the farm at $500 a piece. “We calculate that the Kings Park Community Solar Farm will generate more than $24 million in gross revenue over a typical 20-year power purchase agreement. We will offer our investors a guaranteed 150 percent return on investment with annual payments deposited over the 20-year lifetime of the agreement,” he said. “Through design efficiencies we will maximize photovoltaic energy output to not only increase profit for our investors but also to decrease our reliance on fossil fuels, which today — despite many residential and commercial PV installs — still represents the majority of Long Island’s energy production.” The plan has already received support from various North Shore elected officials, including state Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket), who threw support behind Nuzzo in a letter to the Suffolk County Landbank Corp. “I am always happy to see younger members of our community active in civics, so it was especially heartening to this vibrant young man at the helm of my local civic association,” he said. “Mr. Nuzzo has also

worked with the Setauket Harbor Task Force and was responsible for securing the donation of the use of a ‘solar trailer’ from a local solar installer to power our Setauket Harbor Day Festival last September with renewable solar energy.” Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station) described Nuzzo as a “knowledgeable leader on environmental issues” who was “well versed in many modern environmental technologies and practices, including solar projects, LEED process and green technology.” The Suffolk County Landbank was established in 2013 after its application was approved by the New York State Empire State Development Corporation. Some of the other brownfields included in the request for proposals include Hubbard Power and Light and a gas station on Brentwood Road in Bay Shore, Lawrence Junkyard in Islip and Liberty Industrial Finishing in Brentwood, among others. Cumulatively, the eight properties owe more than $11 million in delinquent taxes as of August 2015.

Smithtown West Bulls start off season strong Girls’ lacrosse

Smithtown West . . . 12 Sachem North . . . . . . 6 By Desirée Keegan

With help from Chelsea Witteck’s five goals and one assist, the Smithtown West girls’ lacrosse team pulled away with a 12-6 victory over Sachem North Monday, putting the group’s first Division I tally in the record book. The Bulls came bursting out of the gate with senior midfielder Mackenzie Heldberg winning the first draw and getting the ball back to take it to goal for the Photo by Desirée Keegan

senior midfielder natalia Lynch moves the ball downfield.

1-0 lead just 11 seconds in. Off the ensuing draw, Heldberg won it again and brought the ball into Sachem North’s zone. A crossing pass was made and a shot missed, but the ball still managed to bounce in just seconds after the first goal. At the 2:23 mark, Witteck scored off a quick pass in front of the net for a 3-0 advantage. “In the first half we came out strong — winning the draws, finishing our shots,” the junior attack said. “I’ve been working on my shots and we’ve been working a lot on our plays and getting good looks, and everyone can feed and play all over the field.” The draw wins kept coming, and with them came more goals. By the 14-minute mark, Smithtown West had an 8-0 lead before the Flaming Arrows put their first point on the board.

OPINION

Image from Suffolk County Landbank Corp.

A satellite view of the Steck-Philbin Landfill site

ediToriAL

A brighter future Suffolk County put out a request for proposals to help redefine what the former SteckPhilbin Landfill brownfield site on old Northport road in Kings Park could look like, and this week a Stony Brook group has proposed to build a solar farm there. We were excited to read some of the details behind the ecological engineering of Long island plan, which the firm’s president Shawn Nuzzo said would deliver significant amounts of solar electricity to Long island’s power grid without decimating anymore of the area’s land. This is the kind of development we hope our fellow Long islanders can get behind. The solar farm proposal is an example of what can be done with Long island’s most problematic properties. All we need is for residents and politicians to give it a chance. oftentimes we encounter widespread resident opposition across our North Shore communities to development proposals of any sort for various reasons. But by giving projects like this a thorough look, coupled with an open mind, we believe we can address some of the biggest environmental issues facing the island. in this case, for example, transforming an industrial area into something that could benefit us all seems almost like a no-brainer. The former landfill site in Kings Park is no doubt an eyesore and a horrific blight on the greater North Shore community, so why not see it transformed by a legal and reputable business? eeLi wants to come in and build a 6-megawatt solar farm through crowdfunding dollars, so let’s support the firm. This quote from Nuzzo, also the president of the Three Village Civic Association, said it all: “Unlike other recent utility solar projects on Long island — where large developers have proposed to clear-cut forests, raze golf courses and blanket farmable lands — our proposal takes a dangerous, long-blighted and otherwise useless parcel and revives it as a communityowned solar farm,” he said. We say reputable, by the way, because of the several letters of support Nuzzo and his team received from some of the North Shore’s staunchest environmental advocates, including state Assemblyman Steve englebright (d-Setauket) and Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (d-Port Jefferson Station). This property is a perfect example of what we could do with so many more of our neglected areas across the North Shore. The landfill is not situated directly next door to someone’s house, so the “not in my backyard” argument holds a little less weight. it’s time we think smart when it comes to repurposing our landscape.

Branch Brook school closure

For safer streets To The ediTor: resident Mary dwyer wrote a letter referring to the traffic along Lake Avenue as well as generally in St. James. i validate all the points that Ms. dwyer makes about drivers ignoring the 30 miles per hour speed limit along with stop signs and even traffic signals. She points out the 20 miles per hour speed limit posted in front of schools in her area. No doubt this speed limit is also being broken. Currently, there is a great deal of police activity enforcing the crimes committed to secure money for the mushrooming opiate problem in Suffolk County. The 6th Precinct described most of the serious crimes being committed — such as burglary, theft, robbery, home invasion — as being driven by the addicts’ desperate need for money to purchase drugs, as sited in The Times of Smithtown on Feb. 4. in my opinion, vehicle traffic law enforcement has become a lower priority for the Suffolk County Police department. Some residents have pointed out the dangers reckless drivers pose to a community and its residents. At the hands of a reckless driver, a car becomes a powerful and dangerous weapon, which can kill or very seriously maim others. When a police officer stops a driver engaged in reckless driving behavior, the officer might uncover other viola-

File photo

tions of the law. Whether the driver is under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs or whether the driver has an outstanding warrant for another crime such as nonpayment of child support, stopping this driver gives the officer the opportunity to uphold the laws and at least temporarily prevent the driver from putting other drivers and pedestrians in great danger. There is little we residents can do other than observe this driving behavior with fear and great frustration. Some residents have purchased and placed on their lawns signs that read, “drive Like Your Children Live here.” it is my understanding that only the Suffolk County police officers have authority to enforce such reckless driving behavior. We need enforcement rather than signs that plead with motorists “drive Like

Your Children Live here.” is there anything the Town of Smithtown could do to help? Would such reckless driving be a situation that could warrant the involvement of the Town of Smithtown department of public safety or even the town traffic safety department? Perhaps, absent vigorous police enforcement, the only recourse is to utilize motion-activated cameras by three-way stops, all-way stops and stretches of roads like Lake Avenue where motor vehicle speeders frequently endanger the public. Are there street designs that could place some sort of physical obstacle to slow down the traffic? i am thinking of the recently constructed chicane along Montclair Avenue or “tables” that are more up-to-date versions of “speed bumps.” Maribeth r.

The mythology of real and imagined heroes

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

odern mythology, as it was for those Greeks and Romans long ago, is a carnival mirror. Mythology helps us see ourselves and our world using distortions to exaggerate truths or to give us a chance to focus on different parts of our lives and society. The Greeks created these spectacular stories to understand how the sun crossed

the sky to where spiders came from. The former occurred because Apollo pulled a chariot across the sky and the latter was a result of a mortal woman named Arachne engaging in a weaving contest with the goddess Athena. For the Greeks, these stories offered a possible cause for the inexplicable and helped ordinary people cope with the seemingly arbitrary and capricious nature of events around them. Why, they might wonder, did their favorite tree die when lightning struck it? Zeus must have been upset about the latest offering or about the words you said when you were at the market. A chest of gold washed ashore near you? You must have done something to please Poseidon. Our modern myths and heroes come from many places. People win Purple Heart decorations from grateful presidents, earn medals of honor for their valor, or walk or run hundreds of miles to raise money for worthy

causes. The list, of course, is much longer than that: Scientists and doctors fight to find cures for cancer, autism, heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease and many other problems; firefighters race into burning buildings to save others; and police officers protect and serve our communities. Hollywood wants a piece of the hero action, pumping out movies about people with the everyday courage to challenge conventional thinking. The studios have invested considerable money in the live action version of comic book characters, cranking out stories about men and women with spectacular powers, incredible toys and spirited enemies. In a new twist, Batman and Superman will battle it out around the same time that Captain America and Iron Man clash. Is it a coincidence that these movies are coming out at around the same time? Maybe. Is it a coincidence that they’re coming out at the same time that Trump and Hillary

get ready for the main event? Maybe not. In any case, these movies, which hope to capture plenty of dollars, have seized on something visible in our carnival mirror. People, like their on-screen superheroes, want to do the right thing — whatever that may be. At the same time, others, driven by a similar desire, may pull in the opposite direction. A conflict is inevitable, particularly in the context of a modern world in which quick reflexes are more important than reason and consideration. We don’t sleep on decisions anymore or consider our moves or the consequences. With people plugged in wherever they are, the world requires instant responses. Strength comes from thoughts that travel at the speed of Zeus’ lightning bolt. Like the Greek gods who fought with each other, our modern movie heroes are no better than the rest of us. They

Hollywood has seized on something visible in our carnival mirror. are limited by their perspectives, weaknesses and a past that threatens to push them in the same decision-making rut. What does the carnival mirror, at least the one that Hollywood is using, suggest about where we’re heading in a country divided between red and blue states, between us and them? I don’t know how these new movies end, but I suspect these superheroes learned to stop fighting and work together. Hopefully, the Republicans and Democrats, who stand in front of the same flag and ask God to bless America, will figure out a way to reach across the aisle and create the kind of peace, security and prosperity we would all like to experience. Wouldn’t that be a nice Hollywood ending?

European travel hit by terrorist bombs

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

arlier this week, there was a news report on the radio that 50 percent of hotel rooms in London and Paris were empty. Individuals, tour groups, even business travelers had canceled their reservations and were staying home. The statistics made me sad. When I was graduating from high school in 1958, I passionately wanted to travel to some distant shores and see what life

in those countries was all about. I had read about Paris in my French class, had translated Julius Caesar’s “The Gallic Wars” from the original Latin, studied the rise and growth of democracy and personal freedoms in my history class, and tried to understand political ideas like communism and socialism in political science class. Now I wanted to see these concepts in action in the real world. My mother was adamant: “You can travel to Europe with your husband. Not before!” Sure enough, the first time I crossed the Atlantic, I sat beside my husband on an eight-day guided tour of London. How fascinating and instructional it all was. How much knowledge I amassed by the time I returned. How much more I understood. I was hooked on travel for the rest of my life. It was said then that we were citizens of our countries, but our children and grandchildren would be citizens of the world. And that prediction has come true. My grandchildren have

already been to three different continents. The impressions they brought back have made them smarter, better and more compassionate people, and they have not yet even reached their majority. But what about today? Are the risks worth the rewards? We know there is a lot in the news these days to make us angry and fearful. Maybe those two emotions are really the same. Almost every day there are reports of carnage of innocent people across the globe triggered by terrorists who want to make a political or sectarian statement, or are looking for revenge. The death and maiming of those victims, whose only misstep was being in the wrong place at the wrong time, is a modern tragedy — a game of Russian roulette. The more gruesome the killings, the more notice their assailants get. Children killed, sure. People slaughtered as they are kneeling in prayer, yes. Aid workers risking their lives with humanitarian motives ... kill them. The ultimate idea is to spread a

tsunami of fear and isolation. When people stop traveling, the terrorists know their brutal efforts are working. In a world that has become wonderfully global — with citizens of different countries interacting and coming to understand the customs and religions of each other, with economies benefiting from tourist spending that raises standards of living — travel is a natural target for those who would bomb us back into the Stone Age. And to what end? The purpose of the killers is power, the power to better control the masses, to attract followers by using corrupted ideology and perverted religious tenets, to enrich themselves with plunder — age-old strategies throughout the bloody centuries. Nothing new here. What is new is a world interconnected by jet planes and Internet information in a way that was unimaginable in the past. Yes, there was the Silk Road and trade routes around the capes of the continents centuries ago. But they were open only to the adventur-

Too many people now have tasted the fruits of travel, enjoyed the wonders of seeing new treasures, tasting new foods, enjoying new dances, meeting new people, appreciating new lifestyles, applauding different forms of government, for the clock to ever be turned back. That is why the killers seek to destroy art and architecture wherever their bloodthirsty rampages take them. They don’t want people to see the different wonders of the world and equate them with new ways to live. So, is it worth it? Is travel to return to only the most daring and adventurous who sailed the seas and trekked the land? I don’t think so. Remember that old song? “How you gonna keep ’em down on the farm after they’ve seen Paree?”
