By CHRIS COUNTS

You can see a spike after Memorial Day.” The sewage plant reported July 5 that a concentration of more than 90,000 particles of coronavirus were found in each liter of sewage — a count that fell to only 17,000 PHOTOS/(LEFT) MICHAEL TROUTMAN, DMT IMAGING, (ABOVE) FACEBOOK one week later.

As the world shut down, and they watched their itin- eraries topple like so many dominoes, Tyler started “sow- ing the seeds,” as Margot put it, of getting a new dog.

He was married to Margie DeWitt in 1954. They moved to Palo Alto in 1960 to raise their four daughters, Dona, Jessica, Sally and Dori. Over the years, Menko worked in a variety of fields, including as a Wall Street broker and securities analyst, a professional folk singer and marionettist. He owned and ran a wholesale tool business, DeWitt Tool Company, in South San Francisco for 12 years. During that time he decided to go back to school, becoming a licensed marriage, family and child therapist. Perhaps his greatest work passion was developing the idea of “Skilligence,” a strategy for improving one’s learning ability — it grew out of his research at CSU, Hayward, and University of Washington, and was inspired by his recovery from head injuries suffered during the war. He refined the idea into a manual for workshops, which he offered in Carmel and Monterey, and a book, Intelligence Unchained, which he published in 2019. He enjoyed athletic endeavors. As a young man, he swam on club teams and was on multiple varsity teams in college including swimming and boxing. He continued exercising throughout his life, especially loving to swim, which he continued into his early 90s. In 1990, after divorce, he moved to Carmel to be near his sister, Doris, with whom he was very close. He was also close to his half-sister, Helen Rose Platt, of Portland, Ore. While in Carmel, he became an active World Federalist and for several years presented programs on three continents. He married Helen Baird in 1993. They enjoyed bringing their respective children and Loyce Ruocco, Queen of Carmel grandchildren together for many happy celebrations. They shared a love of dogs, a passion Menko also shared with his daughters and grandsons. He relished telling tales of his beloved Y 10-28-1935 3-19-2020 German shepherd from his youth, Connie, who purportedly once saved his mother’s life Carmel-by-the Sea, California while he was away during WW II.

AFTER NUMEROUS editorials in a row about the coronavirus epi- demic, we’d like to turn to a more familiar subject: trees. Several weeks ago, the forest and beach commission considered an ap- plication from a beachfront resident to cut down a grove of very old and very large eucalyptus on her property, and some of the comments made during that meeting were so remarkable they cannot be allowed to pass without analysis. While humans love trees and almost always plant them wherever they decide to live, it’s important to remember that some trees are better than others — not only for the environment, but for commercial, aesthetic and safety reasons. Eucalyptus flunk on all counts. They are bad for the environment because they are imported and have a peculiar talent for driving out native species. They have little value as a crop because their wood isn’t suitable for lumber. They are ugly and drop too much debris on the ground. And they can unexpectedly clonk you on the head when one of their heavy branches falls, and make it much more likely your house will burn down during the next major fire. “It’s pitch canker, Mr. Jones. You’ve got to stop hugging trees.” From every logical point of view, eucalyptus are bad trees. This point becomes obvious when you consider how the forest and beach commission rus, we also need a functioning economy. Rudy Fischer, Pacific Grove would react if somebody proposed to plant a bunch of them in town. Letters CUSD and public comment Still, some people insist that nothing in Carmel should ever change — to the Editor Dear Editor, that the town should stay just the way it was when they discovered it. And Although a correction about CUSD and public comment at board meetings funnily enough, their blind loyalty to the way things are now even extends Ballot measure needed was printed in the last edition of The Pine Dear Editor, Cone, there is more to the story. to the miserable eucalyptus.
