OPEN LETTER TO BOB STRASBURG II by Cohocton Councilman Wayne Hunt

Dear Bob;

The parade of progress is marching right down your street, right in front of your house. 1 have taken up a torch, the light of leadership if you will, at the head of this parade. This parade is not to be denied; not to be stopped. It is just not going to go away!

You, for reasons of your own, have taken up a position beside your street and along with a cadre of your friends are trying to stop the parade. Each of you is armed with a bucket of baloney and you're trying to douse the torch by tossing baloney all over it.

Now this baloney tossing does seem to please a certain crowd in Cohocton and some other towns in the area, so maybe you should keep it up. But beware! The baloney is piling up around your feet. Don't trip yourself up in it.

And by the way, don't patronize old Dad any more. As wise and as kind as he is, he deserves better treatment than that. You will make yourself look a lot better and seem a lot more believable in other people's eyes if you treat them with the same respect that 1 have shown you.
Sincerely yours,

Wayne R. Hunt
