Thank you, Lori, for sharing your story. Donating is so easy, takes only an hour of your time from…Read More start to finish and really does save lives.

I am alive today because of 8 blood transfusions in 26 years! I cannot ever thank donors enough…Read More because I got to live to see my children grow up and now have grand children due to donor generosity! My first transfusion was with the birth of my second child. I faced the possibility that, without a blood transfusion I was going to die. I had a newborn I'd never see grow up and a 3 year old. There was a blood shortage and I am o neg so I was braced for that possibility. Thankfully donors stepped up and I got the precious gift of seeing my children grow up. Then when they were in high school, freshman and senior I desperately needed another transfusion. Again, thanks to blood donors I survived and saw my daughter graduate. Over the next few years there were more scares but THANK GOD there were always those generous donors! Isaw both girls graduate, go to college, ger married, have children because of many many selfless blood donors. I have life because of them. So if you are a donor or you know a donor know that you really and truly are saving your neighbors lives. All but my first batch of blood has come from within the county I live in. My neighbors have given me the gift of life and I am so very grateful. THANK YOU

No....YOU are wrong!
Even if they had safety "belts" on as you…Read More claim.....those are not the appropraite fall protection devices that OSHA requires. They should be wearing FULL harnesses that criss-cross their backs (which you don't see in the photo) and around both thighs. If they were truly tied-off and fell from that height with just a safety "belt" on.....they would break their backs.
Whose the IDIOT now?

Last night and today went as smoothly as can be expected. I was pleased to see so many buses at…Read More Westport last night with people directing commuters as to which buses to board for which stops. No complaints here.

I agree with Chuck's comments about the barriers (unless there's a safety reason of which we are not…Read More aware), but otherwise I thought the commute went smoothly this morning. I only had to wait a few minutes for a shuttle to Westport and then was on my way.

Can somebody tell me what purpose was served by MetroNorth (or Fairfield) PD putting barriers on…Read More both stairs on the Fairfield station (Unqowa Rd) overpass? All this does is force commuters to walk all the way around the station to access the buses. Makes no sense. Put yellow tape to block access to the platform itself but NOT the stairways into/out of the station.

Good beer is a good cause in itself, as it raises the quality of life for those who enjoy it in…Read More moderation. Slightly ironic the monetary benefits will go to minors. I guess this is so there is good being done for all age groups.
