If you love Maine Coons or long haired cats in general then Andy will fit in nicely with you. Andy is just one of scores of wonderful companions waiting patiently to be loved and properly cared for. Dogs, cats and even rabbits are seeking permanent, responsible and loving homes. Call the Shelter at 885-3997 or stop by Wed-Sat noon-4:30. Best friends meet at 401 Skitchewaug Trail!

Our next monthly low cost S/N clinic for cats is February 14. Space is limited and reservations requ ired. Show you love your cat this Valentine’s Day by having it spayed or neutered! Call 885-2174 – don’t let your c at add to the suffering caused by their overpopulation.

BRISTOL – If you’re a northbound motorist on state Route116 in Addison County and wish to head east for other Vermontdestinations such as Waitsfield or Stowe, or even Montpelier,today’s Route 17 is the shortest distance between geographicpoints.

The highway is an exhilarating passage over the steep GreenMountain front. Along the way, the driver passes throughforestland, meadows, and even a moose-frequented bog—whileskirting a few steep cliffs with glimpses of deep ravines androaring brooks below.

Climbing up the mountain face from Bristol, turning north-east off of Route 116, two-lane Route 17 rises to AppalachianGap then descends, in a series of switchbacks, to Mad RiverGlen and on to Route 100 in Waitsfield. The 12-mile-long or soroute over mountain terrain is a thrill to navigate in summerand autumn, less so during the winter months.

Originally called the McCullough Turnpike, the road wasstarted in 1933 during the height of the Great Depression. Atthat time, Vermont State Forester Perry Merrill enlisted unem-ployed Vermont men through the U.S. Civilian ConservationCorps. He spearheaded a project that began hewing a roadwayout of the Green Mountain wilderness. It would take 25 yearsbefore the road was completed over the mountains.

The original leg of the turnpike started on the eastern slopeof the mountain in 1933. The first phase of the plan was to con-nect Route 100 with the Mad River Glen ski area to help pro-mote the local economy.

But it took longer than imagined to run the dirt route overthe ridge via Appalachian Gap—the narrow pass between theChamplain and Mad River valleys—and down slope to the Bris-

tol area. Work on the road was completed by 1958. For those old enough to remember, at least in the days before

the turnpike was paved, the route was muddy in the spring anda slip-and-slide adventure in winter, at least until the roadclosed for the winter. Later, asphalt paving made the highwayeasier to maintain and keep clear of ice and snow. Still, it’s nosmall task to keep Route 17 open during Vermont’s long winternap; warning signs to drivers about winter driving hazards areaplenty. But it’s really the hardworking highway crews that de-serve all thanks for keeping the two valleys connected for near-ly half the year—rain, sleet, snow or shine.

Today, “App Gap”, as it’s popularly known, provides both avital transportation link and a microwave communication linkbetween two very different sides of the state. The gap also at-tracts R.V. tourists, leafpeepers, and motorcyclists during thefairer months for the sterling view. From the top of the gap, thehigh peaks of the Adirondacks stand like a distant wall on thewestern horizon.

Commuters make up a good part of the travelers on today’sRoute 17 as is evident by busy carpool parking lots on both sidesof the gap.

I just don’t knowFrom the Editor

From the editor: Vermont taxpay-ers just witnessed a multi-mil-lion dollar effort fail miserably

in a U.S. District Court in BrattleboroJan. 20. This failure was an in-your-faceattempt—mounted by Gov. Peter Shum-lin (D), Montpelier ’s anti-nuclear leg-islative majority, and Atty. Gen. WilliamSorrell (D)—to override the U.S. AtomicEnergy Act by shutting down the Ver-mont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant, themajor supplier of affordable electricityin the state.

Since Jan. 20, when U.S. District JudgeJ. Garvin Murtha threw out the state’scase, several editorial writers across thestate have begun to raise doubts aboutSorrell’s legal skill. Montpelier ’s legaleagle is beginning to look like Miguel deCervantes’ memorable Don Quixote.

Remember when our attorney gener-al—a Howard Dean-era icon who hasbeen steadily reelected since 1997—at-tempted to change our state’s campaign-finance law by recalibrating the contri-bution limits? The case went all the wayto the U.S. Supreme Court in Washing-ton, D.C., and was summarily dismissedas so much tilting-at-windmills. The ef-fort cost Vermont taxpayers millions.

Next, we witnessed Mr. Sorrell goingafter the big, bad drug companies—whose costly products, thanks to yearsof R&D, save thousands of lives every-day. Here the idea was to restrict drugmanufacturers’ ability to collect data tobetter understand how doctors prescribemedications in the state. The VermontSupreme Court threw out this case, cit-ing it as unconstitutional—an attempt toselectively restrict the freedom of oneindustry over another, Again, taxpayerspicked up the multi-million dollar legal

tab.And strike three for Sorrell came Jan.

20 in Brattleboro. Judge Murtha ruledthat little ol’ Vermont had no businesstelling the U.S. Government what to dowith an atomic plant, aging or other-wise. Looks like Vermont forget thatthere’s a federal agency already inplace—the Nuclear Regulatory Commis-sion.

So, what’s the result of all this legalbungee jumping?

The State of Vermont is beginning toresemble, well, the flatlander ’s stereo-typical image of a cranky Vermonter.Love ‘em or hate ‘em, everyone learns tosteer clear of such folks when they startwalking across the neighboring field totell you your business and how thingsare supposed to be.

A law instructor at the Vermont LawSchool told news reporters last weekthat the state’s legal eagles have ac-quired the dubious reputation of “nothaving their act together.” Apparently,VLS Professor Patrick Partenteau is nofriend of nuclear power, so his com-ments about Sorrell must really sting.Partenteau was a former commissionerof state environmental matters.

Considering all the millions (rumoredto be as much as $81 million) the State ofVermont forced Entergy, the owner ofVermont Yankee, to pay in legal fees inthe nuclear case, I wouldn’t be a bit sur-prised to see my electric bill go up.Thus, I can hardly blame Entergy to dowhat businesses need to do—pass alongthe stratospheric costs that governmentlaws and lawsuits extract from privateenterprise.

At last count, 26 states had legislatively expressedtheir disapproval of the mandate-to-purchase-health-insurance in the 2010 Patient Protection

and Affordable Care Act. By Presidential state-count, that left 31 presumably ap-

proving, and by more-geographically-skilled opponents ofPPACA, 24 approving.

Several courts have declared the mandate unconstitu-tional (SCOTUS will soon decide) and most politicians ofclassic-liberal mind-set (in today’s language, they’re called“conservatives”) argue that requiring health-insurancepurchase is a violation of personal liberty.

It’s not a new question: before the American Revolution,Benjamin Franklin’s Philadelphia, with no government-furnished fire-fighter service, had sprouted a number ofprivate companies on call to member/subscriber/premi-um-payers only. If their medallion was visible near yourfront door when they arrived, they’d extinguish the flamesfor you; if not, they wouldn’t.

Modern equivalent of 18th century Philly firefightingenterprises: it went just so in exurban  Nashville, Tenn.,last year, when a non-subscriber ’s house was left to burn.The owner had calculated the risk-versus-savings in “go-ing bare” (a little insurance lingo, there) and lost his gam-ble. Presumably, had he suffered a heart attack after din-ner, the rescue squad would have prevented him from as-suming room temperature, subscriber or not. It’s called thefreeloader phenomenon, and it’s at the heart (no pun in-tended) of the consumer mandate problem.

Yes, there’s a tradition that you don’t get what youhaven’t paid for –think the “I paid for this microphone”Reagan-campaign line a few years back (actually, it wasfirst the Spencer Tracy line in the politics/principle/ro-mance 1948 movie, “State of the Union”), but emergencyrooms, by law, are forbidden to turn non-payers away, andso, while you can’t buy auto insurance (and service) after

the wreck, you can get health care with neither insurancenor a pledge-to-pay, because citizens dying on sidewalksas they did (and do) in medieval London or modern Cal-cutta aren’t acceptable in modern Paris or New York.

Those who us who argue that one should be free to de-cline insurance coverage (no mandate-to-buy) with the un-derstanding that he has declined any future free-loaderstatus as well, have no answer to the probability that hewon’t pay and then he won’t decline, either.

The Ethan Allen Institute proposal opposing mandates,but requiring the guy on the gurney to sign a deduction-from-future-income agreement before the medics move inis one approach. Of course, he could sign, and then haveno income from which to pay, by intent or otherwise. Allof which makes a strong argument for the logic of a man-date.

Ideological first. In fairly recent years, SCOTUS hastwice approved the power of government to regulate intra-State commerce on the grounds that it might have been in-terstate: wheat in 1942 and marijuana in 2005, both deci-sions drawing down ridicule from both left and right, soit’s been easy for critics of the insurance-purchase man-date to declare it similarly a beyond-the-Constitutionreach; thus the 26 states supporting a strengthening of theTenth Amendment (States’ rights) principle and applyingthat limits-on-Federal-power principle to oppose the man-date.

Critics like the Cato Institute point to a weakness — de-liberately, Cato argues — built into PPACA permittinganyone to delay buying insurance until after he’s gottensick, and then to pay only his premium and not his fullcosts-of-service, to justify their antimandate position. Thisis off-point and unpersuasive.  Freeloaders can still gobare and stay covered.

Former Vermonter Martin Harris lives in Tennessee.

MIDDLEBURY – U.S. Forest Service employees from theGreen Mountain National Forest in Vermont took to theslopes of local ski areas to share a new Junior Snow RangerActivity booklet with local school children Jan. 27.

Colleen Madrid, forest supervisor for the combinedGreen Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests, saidthe activity book is designed for children in elementarygrades.

“It has 16 pages of fun-filled activities that highlight thejoy of winter fun,” she said. “It’s designed as a fulfillmentprogram—children receive a card, a patch, and a certificateonce they have completed the activities.”

Madrid and her coworkers got into Vermont’s high coun-try to experience snow that is more visible on top of andeast of the Green Mountains this winter.

“The children look at personal safety, wildlife, winter

ecology, snow science and recreation using the booklets,”Madrid said.

Children also learn about the lives of real snow rangers “They learn about rescue dogs and the continued impor-

tance of wildfire prevention during the winter,” she said.  “This was a fun day for children and Forest Service em-

ployees,” said Colleen Madrid, Forest Supervisor for theGreen Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. “Whatwe are really excited about is creating a culture of safety,sparking an interest in natural resources and getting thesekids out to enjoy the recreational opportunities in their ownback yards.”

For students who didn’t make it outdoors for the programintroduction, Madrid said, the books available are availablefree at Green Mountain National Forest offices in Middle-bury, Manchester, Rochester and Rutland. Once completed,children can take their books back to the office, or mail themin, and receive and card, patch, and certificate of comple-tion.

Kids learn what it takes to be a snow ranger

Four long-distance stockcar events for Late Model raceteams will determine the Ver-mont State Late Model Cham-pion. The American CanadianTour-type Late Model divi-sion is the most popular formof stock car racing in thenortheastern US and easternCanada, serving the needs ofracers and fans at fifteen dif-ferent race tracks and two re-gional touring divisions.

Thunder Road will presentthe historic 50th anniversaryMekkelsen RV Memorial DayClassic and annual VermontGovernor’s Cup 150 as part ofthe Vermont State series.

The new owners of Devil’sBowl Speedway in WestHaven, Mike and AlayneBruno, have joined over adozen regional tracks by in-corporating the ACT LateModel rules as a part of theirNASCAR weekly racing pro-gram.

Mike Bruno, a former ACTLate Model competitor him-self, said, “I know how com-petitive these cars can be andwhen Tom (Curley) and Italked about this idea, it justseemed like a good fit for ourfirst year with Devil’s BowlSpeedway, and for the entire

Late Model region”.Devil’s Bowl Speedway

will host a 100-lap event June8,. The Vermont State LateModel Champion will becrowned at the Devil’s Bowlseason finale on Sept. 16. Bothevents will be 100 laps in dis-tance. The two tracks willpost over $10,000 in pointfund money for participatingteams.

“The ACT US Tour LateModels have put on a greatshow at Devil’s Bowl over thepast couple years, and theopening event at Devil’s Bowlwill once again be the tradi-tional Spring Green 112 lapevent.  This combined effortto give the weekly teamsaround the region an oppor-tunity to have a four raceweekly type series and honorthe first Vermont State LateModel Champion is a nicebalance between tour racingand weekly racing.

♦ ATTENTION PET OWNERS ♦ If you are the owner of a cat, dog, horse or some other type of companion animal then

we need your help!

In April we will be releasing our first “Hooves & Paws Pet Resource Guide” and we are collecting stories from area pet owners about their very special animals. We are hoping that you will take a minute to write to us about how you acquired your special friend and just what this pet means to your life. We even want to know if the story doesn’t have a happy ending because it might help one of our readers to deal with the loss of a very important pet in their lives. We encourage you to send a photo of you and/or your pet to accompany the story. You may mail the story by March 30th to:

Addison Eagle Attn: Lou Varricchio

16 Creek Rd., Suite 5A Middlebury, VT 05753

Or email photo and story to [email protected]

♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦

Our Guide will also have articles and information from rescues, shelters, humane societies, vets and

organizations that take care of house pets as well as horses. If you are a related business and would like

to advertise in this piece please give us a call for more information and rates.
