The editorial in today's paper ("The Right Side") proves too things: the established press does follow your postings on your website, and can, on occasion, get up the courage or whatever it is, to back your position. Congratulations! You are right - you do have an impact.
But I was even more surprised with Carol Petersen's column "F&M's what's-good-for-us-is-good-for-you concept" column. This is what a lot of people have been saying for years, but finally it made its way into print - in a combined paper, at that.
