Letters from Readers - Library critics
Greenwich Time
Look past the complaints about library project
To the editor:
Regarding the Byram Shubert Library renovation ("Status of library annoys Byram,") Greenwich Time news story, March 23), it is interesting to note that there are still a few naysayers and maligners in the Byram community, which in general has fully supported the renovation project.
I have lived in Byram for over 30 years and have sometimes observed the negative and unconstructive contributions of the few. Messrs. Joe Kantorski and Mike Bocchino are doing a great job of being negative about the project, especially when their public comments are so uninformed, and when they have had the opportunity to attend the regular construction meetings to keep up to date with the renovation and to have a clearer understanding of the process this project has gone through..
I have observed this project from close range over the past six years, and know how many volunteer hours that numerous people have put into making it happen, even when these volunteers had other full-time (paying) jobs.
Come on, Mike and Joe! Smile! Be positive! The Byram Shubert Library renovation is a wonderous addition not only to the Byram community, but to the town of Greenwich.

Greenwich Time Editorial
Bernie Madoff is in jail. Woo-hoo. Ding dong, the wicked wretch is dead. One year ago, Madoff -- along with the heads of Merrill Lynch, Bear Stears, Lehman Brothers and a long list of others -- were pseudo-gods, superhumans delivering big payoffs to investors who could not believe their good fortune.
