Weekly Wrapup - Microsoft and Morrisville

From my workplace: The S(c)pammers are actually getting smarter. They realize now that poorly-worded, misspelled, shoddy-looking e-mails that scream at you to "send this to everyone in your address book" aren't fooling anybody anymore (or most anybody). The latest virus-generating e-mail looks like it comes from Microsoft with links to a security update. You only need to remember Microsoft does not send security updates through e-mail.

From my neighborhood: Orange, striped barrels in a flock! Surveyors, and the tattle-tale sign of disappearing trees. Construction is actually on at Morrisville-Carpenter Road and 54.

From my email: I promised an update on the newly sold (actually, under contract) vacant lot next to Morrisville Square link. Morrisville's planning Director wrote that the land is indeed zoned O&I, but will be translated over to High Density Residential since it is part of the Town Center Plan. Now get this. Only about 20% of the property is buildable because the rest is in a 100 year flood plain. Whoever spent $1.1 million for that will need to get their money's worth.
