I feel for those who will lose their spot. My father owned and operated the Isaly's in Cortland for 40 years and closed (sold) it in the early 70's. It has not been the same since and sits empty today. These "spots" remain all over the country though seem to be loosing ground. There is just something to be said about the local greasy spoon! They serve their patrons and towns well. They are for "the folks", we the people. My very best to the owners and their patrons. J. A. Finley Cortland
I'm sorry I cannot agree with D. Arbogasts comment about our elected officials. They have had more than a year to stop this administrations (Obama) divisive tactic on spreading the so called wealth. By excluding the salaried retirees from any settlement (The Auto Task Force) with GM/Delphi they have made it clear. There will be no fair and equitable treatment of Delphi salaried retirees. We are about to lose our wealth to some unknown. Jim Finley Cortland

Delphi salaried retirees unite to fight deep pension cuts
