Jason Patrick: Share the road

This year I repeatedly am finding that although many cyclists demand motorists share the road, they refuse to give the same courtesy.

Kelly op de Weegh: Focus on communities

In Routt and Moffat counties, Shell Oil is focused on responsible oil exploration. And our approach to explore such energy resources is rooted in our core value of personnel and process safety.

Joseph Littlehorn VI: Making roads safer

As more and more young drivers enter the road, and as more bicyclers do the same, people and families everywhere constantly ask themselves: Should bikes and automobiles be allowed on the same road?

Laurie Edwards: Mid-year’s resolution

Without coming down on one side or the other in the fracking debate, one thought does come to mind: If we are concerned about the ramifications of many of these new methods of oil and gas exploration, are we also willing to curb our own voracious appetites for yet more easy energy?

I am dismayed with city planners for even considering a Vitamin Cottage grocery at the location of the old David Chase Rugs and Furniture.

On behalf of Steamboat Springs High School staff and students, I would like to say thank you to the Old Town Hot Springs.

David Moss: It's in our hands

As we approach the 2012 general election, I think it is important to pay attention to what is happening in California and Greece.

After watching an Internet video reportedly showing animal handlers from the Carson & Barnes Circus abusing elephants, I decided to dig a little deeper into their practices.

Jim Winter: The Christian vote

How might a Christian vote for U.S. president in 2012?

Jack Gutschenritter: Fracking truth

The Steamboat Institute recently held a seminar called “Fracking: The Radical Left’s Latest Weapon of Fear.” The title for the evening activities sounded unbalanced, so I attended to see what it was all about.

Ken Collins: Cheerleading forum

I attended the Steamboat Institute’s forum on fracking Tuesday evening. Actually, it was more of a pep rally than forum.

Mary Walker: Hearing all sides

I don’t agree with just about everything that Rob Douglas stands for, but I am so glad that the Steamboat Today knows that our community supports hearing all the sides.
