Blowing in the wind
Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal
Tony Lepore uses a hand held blower to send thousands of leaves cascading over the embankment onto the side of the road by his home on Gamage Ave in Auburn Wednesday morning. He had already stuffed several dozen bags full of leaves, and he was only about half way done. The near perfect fall weather will continue for at least another day or two.

Good idea and we should start in the dirtiest corner first and that would be Washington. Maybe it would trickle down.

This is an important start to resurrecting the fishery in the Gulf of Maine. The article does not mention how corrupted the natural flows of the Kennebec River watershed are. Timing and amounts of flow volume has been greatly changed over the last 40 years. Storage lakes at the headwaters and ponds feeding the Kennebec are now keep full all spring, summer, and into late fall. Many ponds are not drawn down at all like they historically were. China Lake is a good example. This change in flows upsets migrational cues among other impacts. It is very easy to screen off turbines so the young salmon do not become minced by the blades and build working fishways. We need leadership in Augusta who want to restore a once great industry.

Decoteau's letter proves that the full moon exaggerates lunacy.
