Laksay: Einstein is turning over in his grave! ^_^

in response to Even the Trains Are Crooked in Brownsville

Laksay: I agree. Whomever is in charge of this cemetery must know about the condition, and them not doing anything about it is nothing short of an abomination!

in response to Bayside Acacia Cemetery

Kavod Ha'met: Kavod Ha'met- respect for the dead- is tradition. What has been allowed to happen to our sacred site here is intolerable. This isn't even just overgrown or slightly forgotten like most old cemeteries. This place is RANSACKED and has been ABOMINATED. Why has this been allowed to happen? Are you...

in response to Bayside Acacia Cemetery

Craig: Thanks for bringing attention to the conditions at Bayside. I have many family members buried there (the grave of one--Helen Schwalb--is shown in two of your pictures above), and although I live out of the area, I try to visit the cemetery when in town and clean up small portions...

repine: Yeah, course, I understand. It's just ideas, an 'honest proposal' not meant to be considered seriously. Our magazine is about putting down our ideas whether they're right, wrong, stupid or factual, anything goes. Free speech, just like graff.
