A reader writes:
“We are Piedmontese, so we work quietly, we don’t show ourselves, we don’t propose ourselves, we don’t brag, and therefore when we have a self-portrait of Leonardo at home, for a few days, we think it best not to let it be known. For this Easter it would have been a formidable opportunity for tourism. Too bad Turin, some trains have to be taken ».
Anna V.
A reader writes:
“The condemnation of the ferocious Russian attack is beyond question. But, given this for granted, I wonder how peace can be achieved, if there is an evident inability to negotiate and to have negotiated. Do we realize that, without mediation, Ukraine will continue to die and count atrocities? If you keep repeating to a madman that he is a madman, covering him with deserved but inappropriate epithets, it will be difficult to induce him to reason. It takes sensitivity, insight, the ability to mediate. Unless the plans of the Great Politics are different from peace ».
Paul C.
A reader writes:
“I am a 95-year-old grandmother with severe walking difficulties. I have not driven for years and to get around the person who assists me uses an old gray seventeenth century with the H mark. The car was stolen inside a garage. The event in itself disconcerting, reflects precisely “the mirror of the times”. The discomfort and bitterness are many, but I trust in some useful information to trace it, through the numbers of the CB113EJ plate ».

A reader writes:
«In the first section of Corso Francia, works have been announced on a four-block long strip for 15 (!) April with a consequent parking ban. To date, no one has been seen. But who is that program in the Municipality? Do they realize that it is parking that we pay 180 euros? Will there still be some respect for the hated motorists? ».
The M.
A group of readers writes:
«We are families who live in Vallie di Rueglio, affected by the fire of recent days. We wanted to thank the Fire Brigade, the AIB volunteers, the Municipality, the mayor and the volunteers who did their utmost, even at the risk of their own safety, for the extinguishing of the appalling fire that threatened our homes for four days ».
