Prewritten:
Given that quotes and writings in the Post & Review sometimes veer into the political realm, it is only fair to offer an open forum to those following this newsletter. Periodically, it becomes a duty of this editor to remind readers that Letters to the Editor are encouraged. In the interest of maintaining quality and balance in this dialog, and since name-calling adds so little to relevancy and understanding, these broadsides are discouraged.
