Fluoride in the Water Supply Part 2 - The Truth of the Matter

This post is not about the arguable dental benefit of fluoride applied to teeth, but whether the touted benefit is worth the detrimental and toxic effects of systemic water fluoridation.  T his concerns not only effects of neurological harm to babies and infants, but growing evidence of it being a contributing cause of Alzheimer's condition, bone cancer in boys, osteoporosis, and other medical conditions. While information both pro and con states that fluoridated water may have a benefit due to its momentary contact with teeth as it is swallowed, both sides seem to agree that the alleged benefit ends there. The concern is with the harmfulness to the rest of the body once this chemical is ingested. Along with this concern, is the fact that many people, especially children, are getting plenty of fluoride exposure from toothpaste, mouth rinses, and other sources. None of which is monitored to determine the overall daily fluoride exposure. This exposure is in addition to the...

Sodium Fluoride in the Water Supply part 1 overview

  The Kronenwetter Water Utility has pumped sodium fluoride into the Village water supply for many years. This chemical has repeatedly touted to the public by authority figures as being a "Safe", "Effective", and above all a Cheap way of reducing cavities in teeth. Along with that line of thought, they almost always throw in the statement that fluoride is "Recognized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as one of 10 great public health achievements of the 20th century."    So then, why would anyone not want to inject this wonderful substance into the Village water supply? After all, it is said to result in an average o f ONE less tooth filling per child? The reason is very simple; sodium fluoride is not as advertised. It is not safe, effective, or necessarily cheap when all the facts are considered. Effective    The "science" that they use to promote the effectiveness of  this substance leaves much to be desi...

Yard Waste Site Part 2 - tAdding Insult to Injury

Image
  This is a follow-up post to the previous  post "What a Waste of a Yard Waste Site" found elsewhere on this blogsite.         As if the original loss of a great yard waste site wasn't enough, now this news comes out of how   undervalued   the property was at the time when Kronenwetter sold that land.    It turns out that even with a left-hand thread, the screw job that the Village got under the "leadership" of (then) President Chris Voll, Village Administrator Richard Downey, and particularly Community Development Director Randy Fifrick, was worse than we knew.    It appears that after Kronenwetter's staff-promoted an ill-advised, under-informed sale of the 29 acre yard waste site property to the neighboring granite pit owner Mitch King for something like $258,000, King has recently sold the operation including Bevent and Reid properties for  a cool $3.5 million.   The county land records show that the total val...

Kronenwetter - Know Who You are Voting for Part 6 - A Change is Not a Change if it's the Same

   Please check out the other recent articles on this blog for more current Village Board election information. Presidential Candidates Aaron Myszka was on the Village Board for just over 7 months when he filed his candidacy papers for Village President. Here are my observations and opinions about him.    He certainly is a friendly and talkative person who obviously likes to be liked.  He is good friends with Alex Vedvik, who reportedly recruited Myszka as a trustee candidate in 2024 for support of Vedvik's efforts at Village Board meetings. Alex's "second vote" so to speak.     At meetings that they both attended, and not counting routine votes like "to adjourn" or to go into or out of closed session, Myszka voted in lockstep with Vedvik 129 times out of 133 possible votes. Of those 4 opposing votes, Myszka was called to vote before Vedvik, likely making the opposing vote inadvertent. Many of those votes contradict the principles that Myszka cl...

Chris Voll's and Aaron Myszka's "von Briesen Report" Part 2 - A $65,000 crime against Kronenwetter Taxpayers

Image
  Be sure to check my other recent posts on this blog. On March 24, 2025 I brought to the Village Board meeting Agenda item O - Review of von Briesen Report      The objective was to determine how $65,000 of taxpayer money got spent on a project after the Village Board voted specifically not to engage in.   On January 31st 2024 the Village Board held a special meeting with a single agenda item which was   "Discussion & Action: Selection of independent Counsel in Reference to Employee Complaint."    The Board and village attorney determined in closed session that the December 14 email from an employee that had gained such widespread media attention, was not a legitimate complaint but basically a page-long venting session. The approved Minutes of that meeting state the following: Motion by Dumais/Coyle   not to select independent counsel and direct Administrator Ludi to work with personnel on a bonafide complaint, if any, and apply the empl...
