re: Advice on addressing an inconsiderate neighbor (potential damage to lake ecosystem)

I phoned one of my associates from Vermont who advised me to tell you to try and approach the situation yourself, with poise, guile, and gusto. He suggested that you should, with a conspicuous, succinct inflection in your voice, demand he use his leisure time and this particular activity elsewhere, for the benefit of the lake. Any further proclivities as such should be handled peacefully by local authorities.

Some apostate mongrels always hindering society. Might I suggest a gimlet?
