Loren (ACG), I still find it amazing that the "Buffalo billion" scandal hasn't left our governor tainted, if not fully connected with the shady dealings.
I see "a new DG" as a sign of further collapse (for people who can no longer afford to go to WM).
Farmers' market sales are down, and not just here, but across most of the state. Last figures I saw were a drop of 42% in 2016 after a smaller drop in 2015. It's a mixed bag.

This area has been 'depressed' since manufacturing pulled out in the '80's, with further declines in business and population since then, so measuring by that yard stick, I guess I'm glad the rate of decline isn't even faster.
