Perhaps I misunderstood,but I thought WalMart was coming to WARRENTON, not Astoria. Why, then, have a meeting on a Warrenton matter in Astoria? Are Astorian organizers doing their usual thing to try to control what happens in the entire county? Or do these organizers know that people in Warrenton support WalMart and don't care what Astorians think? Or do the organizers simply not care that Astorians will have to pay for the extra police and fire costs associated with public meetings on hot topics.

Keyword?

"Public" and Wal-Mart will just be located in Warrenton

Maybe you should balme it all on George Flavel for starting the trend.

Yeah and when things don't pencil out for them anymore they will just pack up and leave town and Martin Nygaard holding the bag and a bunch of people and businesses stranded.

That's the modern American business practice. We see it everyday via AIG, CitiBank, Chase and so forth. Perhaps socialism would work better?

Good for you Sara Meyer for finally getting to the bottom of why Warrenton residents are fearful of speaking up and good luck Lori Durheim and Ted Thomas.

Isn't Ted Thomas the mentally ill dude who ran for Port Commissioner last year?

Ted Thomas and Lori Durheim are avid community volunteers in many causes and bless them for their willingness, as it is with Ann Samuelson, Jeff Hazen and Patricia Roberts, to take hits like this in pursuit of what they believe in for a better life quality for the community on the whole and.....don't we all suffer, in some little way, from a departure in what would be deemed, rational thinking compared to "The Norm"?

Could it be queried of your psyche that you would be "The Cowardly Dude" that wants to judge others while hiding behind anonymity?

To which community organization(s) does Thomas volunteer to?

Mr. Thomas and/or Ms. Durheim should be listed in the current area telephone directory and to make certain you get it right, why don't you call them and ask?

Get back to us on what you "Learn" would you?

Should? Well, just looked and he ain't listed. Again, in what capacity does Thomas serve as a community volunteer? We know he is a man in his early 40s, so it would be reasonable to assume if he is well known in the community he would also be employed. Since you seem to know so much about him perhaps you can convince him to come here and answer these questions...but, we know that won't happen, don't we.

Not that it surprised me that you would not read or take time to comprehend what I said and then quote it incompletely but, considering that Mr. Thomas and Ms. Durheim live together, I could only assume that one or the other has the phone listed in one or the other's name and that's why I used the term "and/or".

Below is exactly what I said and please and again, let us know what you find out.

It has been reported that Ms. Durheim has removed Mr. Thomas from her residence because she did not wish to support him any longer.
