Jerry Richardson, Forever Vigilant!

C'mon Secretary Holperin, you are the Secretary of T-O-U-R-I-S-M, not DNR. Koshkonong is as invaluable to tourism as the Tallman House or Milton House.

12:45 p.m.-Tourism Secretary Jim Holperin talks with Edgerton residents at the refurbished train depot.

Holperin also hits two other city pride points-Sterling North's boyhood home and the Edgerton Public Library.

Holperin doesn't escape without addressing the amount of water that is or is not in Lake Koshkonong.

Jerry Richardson says government facilitation is key to his Harbor Recreation marina, a shot at state Department of Natural Resources officials who have disallowed raising the lake level.

Holperin defends the DNR as a "beleaguered agency" under pressure.
