Iconoclast View

That's right! New and improved. You see, we are experience growing pains: lots and lots of people are sending us stories and story ideas; lots of businesses are advertising and more are in the pipeline; lots of people are joining us each new day as a first-time viewer. Lots of them.

We now average 350 "unique" viewers on our lowest view day of the week - Sunday! That's our low count. Over the past 30 days we experienced over 4,000 unique viewers!

We recognize the significance of Dan Rumer's role in the Bluffton schools. Not only has he served as a high school principal, but also as a school board member. He is the only person ever to serve in both roles - of course, at different times.

We appreciate the devotion he has given to the school district as a professional and as a parent. He will be hard to replace on the board.

As we look back, there have been very few times that a school board member has resigned during a term. This is an unusual event. It is the school board's duty to select a replacement.

All Internet service in Bluffton will be turned off on Easter Sunday as a precaution against potential wireless router damage. The blackout will occur from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m, Sunday, April 4, according to officials who have planned the event.

When no Internet service available, some Internet addicts will search for hot spots in the village that may be high enough on ground to pick up signals, although it is doubtful that many areas will be discovered.
