Don't believe the spin – regardless of damage, historichome restoration specialists will tell you that almost anyhistorical house can be saved if those involved want tosave it. Most importantly, the house must be carefullyinspected by an engineering firm that specializes inrestoring historic homes and not from outside through anowner-installed fence. The future of the house and theproperty is uncertain at best.

From The PublisherAn inconvenient convenience
I guess we all get a little confused as we grow older. Here is my latestexample… it is based on the new convenience that laws and rules arenot necessarily adhered to…that is everyone seems to be able toexempt themselves from those rules and laws they find inconvenient;like stop signs and u turns. Our government leaders also find their ownway to avoid following the laws they pass for the ‘benefit’ of the rest ofus, like free and tax free lunches in Congress while the rest of usstruggle with the business lunch IRS rules.
Now we have found another truth that isn’t: the concept of cash beingthe best payment for goods and services, or, as the dollar bill says “This note is legal tenderfor all debts, public and private.”
The TONH Department of Waste Management seems to have never read this or havesimply decided that they do not have to follow this rule… I understand part of the reasoning,after all the cash from the dump drop off seemed to drop off and disappear. What isn’tunderstandable is the cure... just do not take cash… That might eliminate something calledstealing.
At the same time it appears that the TONH has found another way to steal, or should Isay “divert the funds from the crooks to the Town.” It was a great surprise the other Sundaywhen we dropped off a car full of the inevitable trash we all seem to collect. Yes the $5.00minimum charge was still in effect. And cash was unacceptable.
Then came the real surprise on the bill – $5.00 for the drop off and a $1.95 “ConvenienceFee.” A fee for paying with my credit card! Maybe a 2% or 2.5% credit card fee would besomewhat acceptable, but a “Convenience Fee” of almost 40%???
So the logic is to avoid internal theft, make us pay by credit card then charge 40% forthe convenience of paying by credit card… Maybe someone can explain the logic.
