Giles Free Speech Zone

The purpose of the "Giles Free Speech Zone" is to identify problems of concern to the people of Giles County, to discuss them in a gentlemanly and civil manner, while referring to the facts and giving evidence to back up whatever claims are made, making logical arguments that avoid any use of fallacy, and, hopefully, to come together in agreement, and find a positive solution to the problem at hand. Help make a difference! Email "mcpeters@usit.net" to suggest topics or make private comments.

Flash, Flash, Flash... Sands Restaurant Closing

One of the oldest restaurants in Giles County is scheduled to close soon. The Sands Restaurant at Frankewing will be closing after many years of serving great steaks and other fine food. What is the reason for the closing? The new owners of the motel are offended by the fact that beef and other meat is served there. Allen Barrett

Flash, Flash, Flash... Cyanide Found on the Square

Why has there been no information about the bottle of cyanide found at a local business on the square? What was it doing there and why has no one been charged with endangering other citizens? What is the status of the bottle now and how long before it will be disposed of? When will the public be made aware of this situation and why haven’t the hazardous waste folks already made this situation public? Why was the public kept in the dark to begin with? Allen Barrett
