On a calm Thursday evening, residents of Potsdam and surrounding communities converged at Downtown Snell Hall for a Forum to discuss the future Wal-Mart planned to be constructed on Route 11, about one mile west of the Hill Campus on the south side of the highway. The forum was organized and sponsored by North Country Matters, a monthly news magazine on WCKN, and the Daily Courier-Observer.
Within the forum, it was broken down into four segments. The first was opening statements, followed by questions from Daily Courier-Observer Rob Snow and WPDM Radio News Director Scott Dustin with comment, then the third part involved community comment and/or questions for the panel, concluding with closing statements. Dan Dullea, Senior Communication Specialist for the Center of Excellence in Communications, WCKN's advisor, and TC 327 professor was the host and introduced the format and the rules. Each comment or statement was limited to two minutes, in order to avoid anyone overly controlling the microphone.

You quote Mr. Service as saying a couple of things. First of all this is my brother-in-law and his name is Jeremy Surface!
Thank you, I just wanted to correct the error!
