09/21/08 Greenwich Political Wire


Antony Edwards / Getty




This is the state of our great republic: We've nationalized the financial system, taking control from Wall Street bankers we no longer trust. We're about to quasi-nationalize the Detroit auto companies via massive loans because they're a source of American pride, and too many jobs — and votes — are at stake. Our Social Security system is going broke as we head for a future where too many retirees will be supported by too few workers. How long before we have national healthcare? Put it all together, and the America that emerges is a cartoonish version of the country most despised by red-meat red-state patriots: France. Only with worse food.


Admit it, mes amis, the rugged individualism and cutthroat capitalism that made America the land of unlimited opportunity has been shrink-wrapped by a half dozen short sellers in Greenwich, Conn. and FedExed to Washington D.C. to be spoon-fed back to life by Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson. We're now no different from any of those Western European semi-socialist welfare states that we love to deride. Italy? Sure, it's had four governments since last Thursday, but none of them would have allowed this to go on; the Italians know how to rig an economy.


You just know the Frogs have only increased their disdain for us, if that is indeed possible. And why shouldn't they? The average American is working two and half jobs, gets two weeks off, and has all the employment security of a one-armed trapeze artist. The Bush Administration has preached the "ownership society" to America: own your house, own your retirement account; you don't need the government in your way. So Americans mortgaged themselves to the hilt to buy overpriced houses they can no longer afford and signed up for 401k programs that put money where, exactly? In the stock market! Where rich Republicans fleeced them.


Now our laissez-faire (hey, a French word) regulation-averse Administration has made France's only Socialist president, Francois Mitterand, look like Adam Smith by comparison. All Mitterand did was nationalize France's big banks and insurance companies in 1982; he didn't have to deal with bankers who didn't want to lend money, as Paulson does. When the state runs the banks, they are merely cows to be milked in the service of la patrie. France doesn't have the mortgage crisis that we do, either. In bailing out mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, our government has basically turned America into the largest subsidized housing project in the world .Sure, France has its banlieus, where it likes to warehouse people who aren't French enough (meaning, immigrants orAlgerians) in huge apartment blocks. But the bulk of French homeowners are curiously free of subprime mortgages foisted on them by fellow citizens, and they aren't over their heads in personal debt.....

09/21/08 Around Here When Bill Clark Says Frog We Jump. When The Scribe Of Greenwich Says Jump We Ask,"How High"?




Bill "The Scribe Of Greenwich" Clark says......

I agree.

Can you find out what happened to the June survey than many of us filled out about the educational system here in town? One of the questions was, should Betty Sternberg lose her job? I was told at one point that she had agreed to resign if that's what the survey said.

The survey was machine-readable, filled out with #2 pencils (like the SAT exam). Surely the results are now available over 3 1/2 months later?

Oh - and if you check out the Hartford Courant web site for today (9/21/08), you will see a video clip on the front page, "Greenwich Losses Affect Everyone." It features yours truly and First Selectman Peter Tesei. Is there any way you can download the clip to "Greenwich Roundup?" I think your readers would find it interesting.

Comment:

That survey may be stored inside Betty Sternberg's Office safe, unless the Greenwich Board Of Education has ordered it shredded.

Seriously, the survey is a public document that anyone can request via the freedom of information laws. The Board of education is required to respond less than 5 Business days.

On the fifth day, if there is no response then a parent or taxpayer could ask the state freedom Of information commission to force the Board Of Education to release the document.

Maybe, Betty will get fined by the freedom of information guys like Jim Lash was. Or maybe it will Nancy since she is the the Board Of Education Chairman.

The reason there is so many problems at the Board Of Education is because there is no transparency and accountability.

09/21/08 Greenwich Press Release - The Flying Psychologist Of Greenwich




Both locally and on the national level, women are rising to senior leadership positions and breaking through the proverbial glass ceiling in the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) - the official auxiliary to the United States Air Force.


PRWEB


THE QUOTE:


"I originally joined the Civil Air Patrol as it allowed me to combine my love of flying with my interest in giving back to my community," say Capt. Silverman. "I quickly came to appreciate the important role the Civil Air Patrol plays in the safety of our community, both in the air and on the ground, as well as providing an organization in which teenagers can learn about aerospace and pursue their own flying ambitions through our Cadet program."


THE PRESS RELEASE


Westchester County, NY (PRWEB) September 21, 2008 -- Capt. (Dr.) Jill T. Silverman was recently promoted to Commander of the Westchester Hudson Composite Squadron based at Westchester Airport in White Plains, NY. Besides serving as Squadron Commander, . Capt. Silverman is a clinical health psychologist with a private practice in Greenwich, CT. and is on the medical staff of Greenwich Hospital. She treats adolescents and adults and has a particular interest in trauma and disaster mental health. ...
...When asked about what it felt like to command a squadron comprised primarily of men, Jill replied, "The squadron has been really supportive of me from the day I first joined. It has felt to me that it hasn't mattered whether one was a man or woman, what has been important is getting the job done, safely and efficiently. We are team with great respect for one another and a great tradition to uphold." ...
...Capt. Silverman represents a major shift that is taking place in the Civil Air Patrol, as well as other branches of the military; that of women attaining more senior leadership positions. Just last month, Major General Amy S. Courter, became the first woman to become the Civil Air Patrol's National Commander, the highest-ranking leadership position within the organization.

09/21/08 Greenwich Educationline: Greenwich Time Cub Reporter Colin Gustafson Can't See That Failed Aministrators Are Causing Low Test Scores


Did Greenwich Education Reporter Colin Gustafson's Previously Work For This Newspaper?


Quotes From Horribly Confused School Administrators:


"It's perplexing," Susan Ellis,a Board of Education member, said at the board's Aug. 28 meeting.


"To have that juxtaposition, where writing is at a five-year high and reading a five-year low - it just doesn't compute," GHS headmaster Al Capasso said recently. "You have to do a considerable amount of reading and comprehension to be proficient at the writing section."



Previously Colin Gustafonson Filed This Report On The Failed Greenwich School Administrators:




By Colin Gustafson

Staff Writer


Article Launched: 08/26/2008 01:00:00 AM EDT


Middle-school reading scores reached five-year highs in the 2007-08 school year, while the portion of high school students proficient in writing increased by impressive margins.... blah... blah... blah..... I just write what school district administrator John Curtin tells me.... blah.... blah.... blah


And Greenwich Roundup Set The Record Straight By Reporting:


Only a fool would call these results mixed. Here's the truth. That giant sucking sound that taxpayers and parents hear is the sound of failed school administrators flushing their children down the drain.


Here is the failed report cards of our high paid school administrators.....



  • The Department Of Justice may soon visit the school district, because of the school administrator's failure to start to close the growing the achievement gap between white students and lower-income minorities.


  • The Greenwich School Administrators are repeatedly failing to address the longtime "gender gap" between boys and girls in math. and English.


  • Greenwich School Administrators allowed elementary and middle-school writing scores to fall for a second year on the Connecticut Mastery Test. (The percentage of students at goal tumbled from 81.2 in 2006, to 79.8 in 2007, to 77.2 in 2008. The "goal" to be satisfactory performance. That means that 23% of Greenwich elementary and middle-school students can not satisfactorily pass the State Of Connecticut's writing test.)


  • Elementary scores were a disaster. Only North Mianus School was a success story, as it was the only elementary program in the district where proficiency levels increased on the math, reading and writing portions of the CMT.


  • In 2007-08, Hamilton Avenue School posted the lowest proficiency levels of all elementary schools on every CMT test. It also saw the biggest year-to-year declines in proficiency, with the percentage of at goal students in the writing CMT plummeting from 72.7 percent to 48.1 percent between 2007 and 2008.


  • The number of black students reaching goal in that test dropped to 32.3 percent in 2008, lower than the at-goal percentages of Hispanics (54.2), whites (82.8) and Asians (87.9).
    The poorest and most disadvantaged members of Greenwich Society are being screwed over as failed school administrators cash big fat paychecks.

Now Colin Files This Report On The Failed Greenwich School Administrators:




Greenwich school officials were incredulous when they saw how sharply 10th-grade reading scores had dropped on the most recent sitting of the state's Connecticut Academic Performance Test.


The drop was so sharp - down from 71.6 percent reaching "goal" in 2007 to 61.3 percent this year, more than a 10-point decline and a five-year low - that one school district administrator, John Curtin, initially suspected there had been an error in scoring the exams of Greenwich students.


There had not.


If not an error, perhaps other districts with a similar demographic make-up had fared similarly, he thought. Almost none had.


"We haven't found a smoking gun," Curtin said recently. "We were an anomaly."


The decline comes on the heels of slow-and-steady progress in the number of GHS students achieving goal, which, in the four years from 2004 to 2007, jumped from 67.3, to 69, to 71 and 71.6.


There was also a sharp drop in the percentage of 10th-graders scoring at the "advanced" level, which fell more than 13 points, to 28.2 percent this year, from 41.4 percent last year. Students scoring at the "proficient" level also dropped, though by a smaller margin, from 94.1 to 91.1.


The decline in performance is in sharper focus now that the state Department of Education has cited the district for failing to make "adequate yearly progress," in part, due to lackluster reading results at Greenwich High and Central Middle schools.....


.....the district's English coordinator will work closely with GHS faculty this year to ensure that "they're covering all their bases" in English instruction, Curtin said.


There will be no overhaul to the curriculum, however, in response to what could be a one-year blip in reading performance, he added. "Sometimes anomalous things happen one year that don't happen again the next."


The Board of Education will meet Oct. 23 to discuss a yet-to-be-released "monitoring report" on reading scores




Let me save you some time. Ametuer Education Reporter Colin Gustafonson only talked to failed school leaders about their poor performance in his one sided and biased article.

09/21/08 Greenwich Sportsline: Greenwich Whitted Darians Comanding 17 Point Lead Down To A Five Point Loss



QUOTE:

"They have their tradition and everything, but we had the heart in this game," said Darien senior Nikki Dysenchuk, who scored on a pair of short runs in the second quarter helped the Blue Wave (2-0) build 24-7 halftime lead. "We took it to them in the first half and they didn't know what hit them."

THE STORY:

Darien shocks Greenwich 31-25

The conservative stuff just wasn't working. Though Darien was trying desperately trying to run out the clock on Saturday's FCIAC clash, Greenwich still kept coming.

It whittled the Blue Wave's once commanding 17-point lead to a mere five with plenty of time remaining.

So with his team and its upset hopes facing third-and-long from the Greenwich 35 yard-line, Darien coach Rob Trifone thought a more progressive approach might save the day.

"They outplayed us and they were better than us today," Greenwich coach Rich Albonizio said. "And we showed a lack of discipline."

Erik Camacho's 10-yard touchdown pass from Lefflbine with 1:47 left became moot when Michael Gencarelli recoverd the ensuing onside kick for Darien.

"We got a little nervous in the second half with No. 84 (Grant) jumping over everybody," Dysenchuk said. "But we hung in there. Kosnick's catch was amazing. It was incredible.

"This means everything. It's the first step to states. We can't wait."

GAME STATS:

Darien 31, Greenwich 25

GREENWICH 7 0 0 18 — 25
DARIEN 9 15 0 7 — 31

D — John Gardner 27 field goal
G — Mike Lefflbine 1 run (Oliver Ostrowski kick)
D — Matt Wheelock 12 run (kick failed)
D — Nikki Dysenchuk 4 run (Brian Kosnik pass Dysenchuk)
D — Dysenchuk 2 run (Gardner kick)
G — Matt Grant 23 pass from Lefflbine (kick failed)
G — Grant 25 pass from Lefflbine (pass failed)

09/21/08 Greenwich Newsline; Firefighters Trade Three Ring Binders In For Laptop



Thanks to newly installed satellite technology, firefighters can now respond to the scene of a blaze faster and locate water sources with more ease, saving more than just time and effort - potentially saving lives.

So far two fire engines and one sport utility vehicle have been equipped with mobile data browsers, computers that display detailed maps showing hydrants, ponds and other water sources near the area of a fire, Assistant Fire Chief Bob Kick said. The browsers also locate the quickest route to a fire and provide information about hazardous materials. The department plans to install many more units in the coming weeks.

"We're implementing it in a two-phase process," Kick said.

The goal of the first phase is to install 10 to 14 of the computers - Panasonic Toughbook laptops that use HTE Sungard software.....
......The software is being programmed by three department employees, who Kick said have been pivotal in the process. Lt. Brian Koczak, Lt. Charles Teichert and firefighter Kevin Coiner are using their knowledge of technology systems to help implement the program within the department, Kick said. ....

....In vehicles not yet equipped with the computers, firefighters refer to information in three-ring binders to locate water sources in the area when arriving to the scene of a blaze, Kick said. The department will continue to rely on this method as a back-up when the installations are complete. Kick said the department is also working with the town assessor's office to input building data to the machines.

"That gives us a layout of the building, or the approximate square footage of the building, which helps us figure out the amount of water needed to extinguish a fire," Kick said.

As the installations move forward, Kick said firefighters are being trained on how to use the new equipment. There has been one training session so far, and more are scheduled in the coming weeks, Kick said.

"This will be a constant program- there will always be changes and new technology coming up and it's a constant job to upgrade, enhance and provide the information to the units," Kick said.

0920/08 REPOSTED: As Usual There Are No Suspects. Personally, I Blame The Poor Reporting Of Greenwich Time Education Reporter Colin Gustafonson


The Big Shots Are Never To Blame.


We fail to prevent the attacks on 9/11 and nobody is made to answer for it.


We charge into Iraq heedless of the consequences and nobody is made to answer for it.


Frank Mazza flushes 30 million dollars down the toilet and tries to get temporary certificate of occupancy a leaking school to the parents of Hamilton Avenue. Instead of getting fired Frank Mazza get to Chair the new Glenville Building Committee as the small children of two elementary schools suffer.


Wall Street implodes and nobody is held accountable.


The people who precipitated the worse financial crises in memory walk away mega rich while honest hardworking taxpayers and their grandchildren are left to cover over a trillion in debt.


Hamilton Avenue School Modulars are once again leaking and Greenwich's two incompetent buffoons Betty Sternberg and Sue Wallerstein will get $400k+ a year between them for once again making little children suffer.


Day after day a heartless lowlife reporter who doesn't want to make waves named Colin Gustafson sits on the story about water leaking once again in the newly repaired Hamilton Avenue School Modulars. Concerned parents put up a letter from Turner construction as Colin Gustafson looked the other way. Greenwich Roundup also published the letter as Colin Gustafson ignored the the cries small children of Hamilton Avenue school.


Please see:





Taxpayers are calling up the Greenwich Time Saying, "My God enough is enough!!! Stop Protecting The Powers That Be And Think Of The Little Children!!!"


So Amateur Reporter Colin Gustafson half heatedly files this poor excuse for a news story.....




Parents say they're still in the dark about the conditions of the Hamilton Avenue School's modular classrooms following the discovery of leaks and water damage in three of the temporary facilities last week.


Last week, inspectors said deteriorating seals in the rooftop ventilation systems allowed water from tropical storm Hanna to seep into three modulars, causing damage to ceiling panels and a light-fixture lens.


Most parents did not learn about the leakage until several days later, when the school's PTA Web site featured a Sept. 9 letter from Turner Construction Co. updating a school official on the situation.


The news has since riled parents, many already fearful that leaking water could contribute to mold growth at the modulars.


"I was beyond frustrated, given what this school has been through," said Dawn Nethercott, a PTA co-president.


Students have been attending class in the modulars for the last three years while they await renovations to wrap up at their school building, which also had mold problems.


Last March, administrators evacuated students from the modulars following the discovery of mold in the ceiling.


The modulars have had a history of frequent water leaks and moisture issues dating well before students and staff were forced to vacate last March, that were not thoroughly investigated, parents said.


To address the recent issues, Turner recommended in its Sept. 9 letter replacing the faulty rooftop seals. It also wrote that Hygenix, a Stamford environmental consulting firm, would conduct a survey and make recommendations on remediation procedures.


However, the status of those fixes remains in question. The ceiling tiles have been repaired, but it was unclear Wednesday whether the faulty mechanical seals had been addressed, and messages left with a Turner spokesman were not returned Wednesday.


In addition, a Hygenix official recently conducted a visual inspection of the modulars, according to Kim Eves, a schools spokeswoman. The company, however, has not publicized those findings, Eves confirmed, and has not returned multiple calls this week.


"They don't tell you the problem at first," said Hamilton Avenue mother Laura DiBella, "and if they ever get around to admitting it, they've fixed it."


Comment:


Cub Reporter Colin Gustafonson Is Too Wet Behind The Ears To Even Know About The Incestuous Relationship That Exists Between The Town Of Greenwich And Hygenix. Longtime Residents And Others In The Know That There Is A Reason That The Town Uses The Un-Independent Hygenix, But The Incredibly Inept Colin Gustafonson Is Clueless.


I Guess Greenwich Roundup Will Have To Poor Colin Gustafonson A Tall Glass Of Lemonade And Explain Who Is Who At Hygenix In A Future Post That Once Again Scoops The Lackluster Greenwich Time.


In The Meantime Let's See How Long It Takes Rookie Greenwich Time Reporter Colin Gustafonson To Learn About The Water Flowing In The "NEW" 30 Million Dollar Hamilton Avenue School.


Please See:









Please Also See Greenwich Post Story:



Why Is Colin Gustafonson Afraid To Ask questions like:
  • Who on the BET suggested hiring Frank Mazza as head of the building committee?
  • Who hired Worth Construction Company?

  • Did they do a Google on the construction co before they hired them?

  • Can someone please tell taxpayers why Sue Wallerstein had people working on those modulars all summer, and NO ONE noticed deteriorated gaskets on the roof units?
  • Is Sue Wallerstein an incompetant moron?
People have a lot of questions about what's going on at Hamilton Avenue School.
Let's see if the wet behind the ears, Greenwich Time Reporter, Colin Gustafonson can answer any of the above?


It is sad but true......Greenwich Time Readers Are Often The Last To Know What Is Really Going On In Greenwich.

Mr. Roger Berry (first from the right) signs on the tie-up contract with executives from the other three German companies.




The Auto Channel


Shanghai,(Gasgoo.com)


American Automotive, a Greenwich, Conn.-based company, signed a contract today to team with three German technology-supporting companies. The tie-up will offer "professional and one-stop" service that helps Chinese automakers to sell cars in North America and other overseas markets.

The three partners are-TUV Rheinland Group, MBtech Group (China) and Weiss-Voetsch (China). Along with American Automotive, each of the companies has its expertise in offering technology and consulting support for automakers and component suppliers.

"Our one-stop service covers the whole chain-from design and engineering to testing and marketing," said Mr. Roger Berry, chief engineer of powertrain, from American Automotive.

"Our project is better than others because we have combined the services together and we're experienced and professional¡­the Chinese automakers could spend their money more efficiently," he said.

"We may provide funding to them (Chinese automakers), and it's possible to even help them set up local manufacturing facilities in the future," added Mr. Berry.

Actually, American Automotive is not the first or the only vendor that tries to introduce Chinese cars to the American market. .....
.....Brilliance Auto has started export of its improved BS6 sedans to Germany in mid-July after a setback from the safety test failure. Beyond the mature markets like Europe and America, the Chinese vehicles have been sold much better in many other countries and regions.

"We worked with Japanese automakers thirty years ago and with the Koran automakers 20 years ago, and there're always problems in the beginning, but now you can see they sell well in the US market," said Mr. Berry. "And we believe we can pave a smooth way for them."

Mamas, don't let your sons/daughters become harmed by freshman writing professors



By Jane Genova



Writing is a learned skill, and not a easy one to acquire. We're just owning up to the reality vs. berating students who aren't making sufficient progress mastering this complex communications system. Even we kids who grew up to make our profession and living primarily from writing frequently struggled early in te game. That's why those freshman writing professors become part of our cellular memory. Their red-pencil marks, praise, and recommendations for revision are there forever. Forty-five years later that experience frames both my enjoyment of successes and despair over stale prose. I found out why beginning in May 2006....


... has been fueling that. I'm driven to continue to move along this road less traveled, not to own an McMansion in Greenwich, Connecticut. In fact, after five months of therapy with West Hartford, CT's Amy Karnilowicz [family.therapist@comcast.net, ...



...Fortunately, recent research on neuroplasticity indicates that there's an exit strategy from that past trauma. We can retrain our neural paths. We can hang around healthier human beings. We can engage in new kinds of thoughts and behavior. Dan Goleman writes a lot of popular stuff on that. For those of you who welcome heavier fare there's "Mirroring People" by Marco Iacoboni. He's one of the Italian researchers who discovered evidence that we can change our supposed hardwiring.


Another way to deal with this potentially traumatic situation is to prevent it. Parents can alert their sons and daughters about how much impact writing professors could have. If those profs seem unduly critical or abusive, hey, go to the dean. Learning writing is like learning to drive. It demands a patient, confident soul who believes in us.

WOW!!!!
THE GREENWICH POST ONLY GOT 8 OUT OF 10 Of GOOGLE'S TOP 10 RESULTS.

HOWEVER, GREENWICH ROUNDUP AND THE HIGHLY RESPECTED WASHINGTON POST SCORE 10 OUT OF 10 OF GOOGLE"S TOP 1o RESULTS.

But Here Is The Intersting Part The Greenwich Post Gets One Of It's Top 1o Listings From A Greenwich Roundup Post And Two Of It's Top 10 Listings From Editor Postings Made At The Greenwich Topix Page.

I Don't Know If Many People Realize This Or Not But I Am Not Only The Editor OF GREENWICH ROUNDUP, But I am Also The Editor At TOPIX.

Yes its true 3 0ut Of 8 Of The Greenwich Post's Top Google Results Are The Result Of My Postings, So In Theroy My Posts Could Be Responsible For Aproxamately 37% Of The Greenwich Posts Google Web Traffic.

But Does The Irelevant Joe Pisani, Or His Community Service Project Commonly Known As,The Greenwich Post Column, Ever Say Thanks For The Posts And All That Google Traffic?
No, The Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Is Very Ungrateful.
I mean couldn't Joe Pisani and his new friends at the Greenwich Post get Sussie Costaregni to do gossip piece on me or something like....
Celebrity Sighting:
The Fieghsty Editor And Publisher Of Greenwich Roundup Was Seen Having A Wendy Burger Putnam Avenue Before Going To An RTM Meeting In Cos Cob. Fast Food Patron's Were Shocked At The Number Of Yellow Napkins He Took. Rumor Was He Had A Cold....
I mean Joe Pisani was the editor of Susie Costaregni and he was able to steal her away from working for free at Sarah Littman's new blog. In fact, Pisani got Sussie promoted to working for free at The Greenwich Post.
So surely a slick guy like Joe Pisani could get Sussie to do The Dish on me for those Google links.
I mean it is the least that Joe Pisani and his new friends at the Greenwich Post could do to thank me for all of those Google referals.

Any Webmaster will Tell You That The Number One Source Of Newspaper Web Traffic Is Google.

In Fact, When A Commercial Website That Looses It's Top Ten Google Search Result You Often Here Them Crying That Thier Web Sales Drop To Near Nothing.

The Webmaster Goes From Hero To Zero In A Day.
By The Way
Here Is The Link To Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Joe "I Work For Free At The Post" Pisani's "HOT" new blog.
Joe Pisani's Our Greenwich PageComing soon… - In the very near future, OurGreenwich.com looks forward to bringing you exciting local content from well-known journalists and columnists. Stay Tuned…3 weeks ago
I have heard it through the grapevine that Ex-Greenwich Time Editor Joe "I Now Work For Free At The Greenwich Post" Pisani likes to make snide remarks about citizen journalists and bloggers are not real reporters.
But I Would Like To Point Out that When The Mainstream Media, Politician's and The Powers That Be In Greenwich Wanted To Give Pisani A Nice Little Swan Song For Being A Mundane Editor That Left Them Alone, It Was The Bloggers That Reported The Rest Of The Story....
However, at my church they keep telling me to try and be positive and see the good in all of God's creatures, including Ex-Greenwich Time Editor, Joe Pisani.
Allright here is the kinder and gentler version of Greenwich Roundup.....
I do have to admit that the reporting and editing at the Greenwich Time has gotten much worse since Joe Pisani left.
While it was true that Joe Pisani did a great job turning the Greenwich Time into a laughing stock of lower Fairfeild County.
I would have never guessed that the new owners would go out of their way to make sure that the new editor, David Warner would continue Mr. Pisani's mission to send the Greenwich Time into the toilet.
All most every single family homeowner in Greenwich agrees that the Greenwich Time went from bad to worse under Mr. Pisani's leadership.
However, in my wildest dreams, it never crossed my mind once that the Greenwich Time would go to worse to much, much more worst after Mr. Pisani left.
The Greenwich Time has much more rapidly gone downhill since Joe Pisani was fired. In fact, I would now say that the paper has went so far down that it should be classified as subteranean newspaper.
I keep hearing reports that Greenwich news readers now have to wear an oxygen mask everytime they read the Greenwich Time, because of all the noxious fumes.
When are they going to put a warning lable on the front page of the Greenwich Time alerting readers to read the paper at their own risk since reading it has been known to cause retardation and paranoid delusions.
I read the Greenwich Time online everyday and look what's happened to me !!!!!
