To the editor: Don’t be duped! If you are one of those living within the flood and drainage plain served by Diking District 1 and who will be voting for a district commissioner on Feb. 7, please do not be fooled by the loud and angry rhetoric you are hearing, the half-truth innuendos and extremely mean-spirited character assassination smears being waged in both public meetings and in the press by a small group from Sunlight Beach calling themselves Citizens in Support of Useless Bay Community [CSUBC]!
