[Note from Karen: At Dan Maffie's town hall meeting I was able to talk to quite a few people. I met Andrew, who has completed medical school and is now finishing up his residency at a local hospital. He sent the following op-ed to the Syracuse Post Standard, but they have not published it....
Rep. Dan Maffei’s “Congressman on your Corner” meeting this afternoon was trying, extremely trying. A good sized crowd was waiting for him in the library at 10:30 AM.

Oh, to live under a socialist regime! It must be so nice – returning to nature without the help of an environmental lobby. Utopia! Do you remember life before toilet paper? No?
