This is as close as he gets to a smile.
Blogger Independent state house candidate Michael Molovinsky, who's running for the state house seat held by incumbent Julie Harhart, is the first local candidate this election cycle to start running radio ads. They started airing last week on WAEB-AM.

Democrat Terri Powell, a title agent, is also running for this seat.

Molovinsky is running another campaign to save Wehr Dam, which might matter more than the political race. The Wildlands is on a crusade tear down every dam it sees with grant money. This is the subject of recent Morning Call feature story.

  1. The Morning Call article uses the phrase "science vs. sentiment".

    I know what side I am on.

  2. @10:19, the whole article slanted towards the wildlands and science. the problem is that the science isn't site specific. in wehr's case, right below the dam the creek dries up during periods of drought, because it's a "disappearing stream". that means that it has a limestone base, and the water goes below surface for 500 yards to beyond the covered bridge. needless to say fish can't swim underground through rocks. the dam actually keeps that more water in stream by regulating the amount that goes over it. the wildlands also generalized the science in lehigh parkway. the 12''robin hood dam was no barrier to the trout. worse, removing the trout nursery dam resulted in a massive fish kill this summer.

    Yeah, whatever side Molovinsky is not. I have already deleted three of your personal attacks.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
