" To Lawrence H Roberts, I speak with the same authority that you speak with by calling my opinion uninformed. So let us begin to address your column. Sure, Mike Quill over seen the Fire Department, as did Chief Maywalt and Chief Calarco, however the big difference was neither Maywalt or Calarco ran the city into a deficit situation. They ran their department efficiently. This is something Mike Quill found impossible to do. He ran not only the fire department into the ground, but the whole dog gone city. He was the man responsible for the 15 man minimum, he is the man responsible for the $600,000 in over time. So with that Mr Roberts, who is uninformed? Everything I have written is a fact, a documented fact. Next you list his military career, whoop ti doo, I served my country for 8 years. I served the people of the state of New York for 25 years, as has countless others. ANd another thing, I served my community on an elected board, something Mike Quill has never done. He has no political experience what so ever. So please save the "I want to give back to my community" double talk. Anyone who knows what is going on at city hall knows that Mike Quill has a problem with Tim Lattimore, this is one of the reasons he quit. Anyone who knows anything about what is going on at city hall knows that Mike Quill was the absolute last choice for a mayoral candidate. In fact they even went to his campaign manager first, Bill Jacobs a Republican. So please Mr Roberts lets talk facts if you want to debate issues I will debate them with you or anyone else. I know what is going on, and I will not support a man who place this city in jepordy. The primary will prove me right, Mike Quill will get defeated soundly. "
