LETTERS OPINIONS

Let Ma do it!

To the Editor: Mother Nature is smarter than we are. She is obviously more powerful. And way beyond that, she’s also eternal. Human beings share few — if any — of these characteristics.

New bill is unfair to landowners

To the Editor: There’s a bill in the State Senate that’s bad for forestry and recreation and unfair to landowners. The bill’s sponsors want to force Open MFL landowners to allow people to drive vehicles, ATVs etc. on all roads and trails over 9’ wide maintained for vehicular travel.
