YAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/quote] You continue to cost the town money every time you do this. I hope you are caught and made to scrub any sign in the county that is dirty ![/quote] Not that I disagree with your overall point about the cost of vandalism, but technically doesn't it cost the county money since it is their road and their signs and they are the ones who put them up?[/quote] True, but we pay for it in the end... part of our state taxes go to the county.[/quote]

Computers and cell phones are made from toxic and poisonous materials that never decompose. <br /> <br />BTW- most of your "online" news comes from newspapers, the medium you seem so satisfied to see destroyed. In a few years when you're paying $1 per story to download news to your iPhone, maybe you'll realize "hey, I used to get a whole newspaper for $1!" Of course, it will be too late by then.</td> </tr></table><span class="postbody"> <br /> <br />Trees are not recyclable, Meathead. <br />Paper is. <br />You sound like the type of nabob who thinks that cutting down trees actually saves them!!!!!!! <br />Is isn't James Watt, is it?</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sat, Jul 10 2010, 4:13 pm EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Old Trenton Road</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">let's get back ontopic.

This board does not have more news than the CP. What it does have is more misinformation. .... It is fine to have issues with various papers, but don't delude yourself into thinking they do not serve a purpose.</td> </tr></table><span class="postbody"> <br /> <br />I never said that news media serves no purpose, just that the paper version will become extinct. But you also missed my other points, guess you dont read this board much, I do agree there's a lot of reposting going on here. But just this week on this forum, original news topics and discussions included: <br />1) Editor change at the CP [url] <a href="http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15452#15452[/url]" target="_blank">http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15452#15452[/url]</a> <br />2) Quarterly Budget <a href="http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15448#15448" target="_blank" class="postlink">http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15448#15448</a> <br />3) Reinhardt property Why its desirable for township? <a href="http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15461#15461" target="_blank" class="postlink">http://cranbury.info/viewtopic.php?p=15461#15461</a> <br /> <br />Granted that the other 6 active discussion this past week were started by news articles from other sources like NJ.com/SL/CP etc, but they also borrow content and ideas from this forum as well, ie Porchfest was discussed here on the forum first before it became an article in Starledger and then later on the CP. <br /> <br />Again there's plenty of news that is published on the forum first and the discussions are equally news worthy from local discussions, sometimes more so then the articles that first started it in the first place. Case and point - this weeks feedback about the Editorial change on the CP is another good example of two way communication that just doesn't happen on the CP at all and it educates me on the history of problems with the CP and its readership. To me this is far more valuable then the few polished, spell checked articles with pictures. I bet there will be far more to read here about the CP changes and how it affects the Cranbury readership then will show up on the CP paper next week. Dont get me wrong, I do appreciate the effort by CP and I do think it complements the forum, but the paper also benefits from ideas posted first on this forum. Again this board feeds content to the CP as well and makes it easier to find ideas for content in future editions of the press, its a symbiotic relationship that I think works well and make both better.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
