What I can do is raise awareness on my blog, offer suontiols and suggestions to the city etc . As an EAC member I can hope to advise the city on a direct course of action in an official capacity Thing is, the city has to listen to me, and to us (as the EAC). Considering that I cannot actually craft policy decisions, the best I can do is to try and elevate the level of information the average citizen here is getting and hope that the general public demands a better solution. The elected and appointed officials who get to make the decisions need to listen, or, we can either vote them out or force the people who appointed them to rethink their appointment. Even with the strength of god, I could not do more than I am because, I am just a blogger and council member. My job, is to try and make them listen. I'll be doing that in Council Chambers tonight at 6:30. I hope to have good news tomorrow.

Hey, Adam, don't you think the freshwater aglners of SJ would be better served by the State eliminating the trout stocking and focusing instead on enhancing the habitat and numbers of those species more natural to the region, like bass, crappie, and pickeral? Trout (and trout stamps) don't fit in slow-moving, warmer blackwater, except that the State can make a few extra bucks by convincing spring and fall Saturday aglners that they're really fishing with fly-rods and nymphs in the fast moving streamwaters of upstate New York.
