Subject: Toxic Sewage Sludge on Chatham County Farmlands
This editorial was published last year in the Chapel Hill Herald Sun. It is increasingly relevant as legislators consider this subject. Farmers have been told lies to get them to allow sludge dumping on the land that feeds this county. If they knew the truth, they’d reject the offer to host toxic sludge on their lands.

Subject: PLENTY of questions!
I have been watching the posts about this PLENTY concept and so far have reserved judgment, but it sure has spurred a lot of questions in my mind, being a risk-averse person. Here are a few of them… if you KNOW the answers, please respond…either directly or to the Chatlist. If you have opinions about the answers, but don’t KNOW it to be fact… then you’re just like me and need to let the ones in the KNOW talk. Thanks.

large appliances and furniture, and used personel items. The best items are usually household nick-nacks, children’s clothing/ toys/ accessories, books, picture frames, and that other rare thing you don’t know what to do with.

Overheard on polling day:
“Sir, how do you feel about liquor by the drink?”

Subject: Shout out: Antonella
Want to give a shout out to Antonella’s on Hillsboro Street in Pittsboro - it’s is such a breathe of fresh air. Owner Antonella Kundig sets the tone for her shop with a sincere friendliness and gentle kindness that’s so rare and very much appreciated.
Antonella has even reduced prices a bit on some of the services offered in the store to make it easier for clients to treat themselves to a little pampering now and then. Thanks Antonella! 49 Hillsboro St

Subject: Farmers market next to Carolina Brewery
Hi, chatters. I went to the Farmers Market located in the parking lot between McDonald’s and Carolina Brewery.
While it was small, there was quite an offering of fresh produce and pastries, as well as coffee. I haven’t seen anything about it on the Chatlist, so I thought I would mention it. The people are set up at 8:00, and the selection was quite good, especially for something new.

Regarding local tennis lessons, my son is taking lessons with John Delafield. He is incredibly knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend him!
They practice at the courts near Pittsboro Elementary.
