Dear Editor:
It great news to learn that Mr. Roderick O’Connor will ascend to the official government rank of Basalt police chief this Sept. 11, 2010. Bring out the cases of champagne to celebrate this auspicious occasion for Basalt!
Retiring Basalt Police Chief Keith Ikeda, your “ei” is great and will always have a positive historical effect. “Ei” is Japanese for “glory” or “The British Empire.”
