Surveillance cameras are being added to three utility poles in Williamsport's Flanigan Park. Do you think surveillance cameras are a deterrent to crime in the city?
Yes, they are extra eyes for the police with undeniable evidence in high-crime areas.
No, criminals become savvy to them and just take their illicit activities elsewhere.
I am withholding judgment until I see what the results are from installation of these and other cameras in the city in the next few years.

Do you think a gas severance tax should be levied on companies in addition to the gas impact fee they already are paying?
No, they already are paying a fee that is going to municipalities and state agencies.
No, they already are cutting back well production and this will drive them to seek out other places for drilling.
Yes, Pennsylvania needs more money from these companies and they can afford it.

Regarding drug testing in our schools ...
I don't believe in it.
It's OK for use on extracurricular activity participants only.
It's OK for use on all students if there is reason to suspect widespread drug problems in a school.
It's OK for use on all students, whether there are proven drug problems or not.

A recent law enforcement speaker locally advocated legalizing heroin, cocaine and marijuana. Do you agree?
Yes. The war on illegal drugs is a failure that is costing money that could be better spent on education and highways.
Yes. After all, alcohol and cigarettes are legal.
No. You never give up on keeping people off a proven medical hazard.
No. Legalizing these drugs would send a dangerously wrong message to our children.

It was a significant savings that allowed us some rare breathing room the past few months.
It was a significant savings that was necessary to pay off other bills

Would you be willing to pay more in school taxes to keep from cutting teachers in the event of a budget crunch in your school district?
Yes, without teachers you've got nothing in a school.
No, the rubber band has been stretched as far as possible.
It's worth considering, but school districts need to fully explain themselves in those kinds of situations.

What is your lasting impression of Joe Paterno?
A great man who did great things for sports, academia and the development of young men.
A great man who, unfortunately, could not leave his life's when he should have, and as a result made a sad misstep that will forever stain his legacy.
A great man who nonetheless was prone to arrogance, much of it obscured by many achievements, but some of it unseemly to much of the world outside of Penn State.

What is your reaction to the hiring of Bill O'Brien as new Penn State football coach?
It's a great hire bringing much-needed new blood to the program.
Someone like Tom Bradley or someone else in the Penn State network should have been hired.
It wasn't a great hire but it was the best they could do under the circumstances.
It's a lousy hire of a man with no head coaching experience leading an elite college football program.
