I don't know if I expected any but I was sure to write a very positive minded e-mail with viable suggestions for change. So far they seem to have fallen on deaf ears. Perhaps you have ideas or someone you know has some ideas? I'm all for mounting a revolution that will one day be a benefit for all people everywhere that want to know what is going on in the world around them.
It cannot all be bad...that is simply impossible in this Universe of infinite possibilities. The time is now. Can you help? Can you encourage me? Can you advise me? Please, I am full of passion to get this going but unfortunately have not yet been shown the best way to achieve my goal. Any suggestions you may have are most appreciated.

To the editor:
I just want to say “bravo” to Betsy for her editorial/article regarding media and, more specifically, for her thoughts about a particular review published in a Portland paper. I too think a lot of time is wasted on complaining about all the things we don’t like “out there,” but I personally much prefer promoting what I do like and trying to live my life in a way that is congruent with promoting what is good rather than focusing on what is not. Believe me, I have my share of days when I am disgusted or disillusioned by what is going on in our world- but if I allow myself to just focus on that, I only become more disgusted and exhausted. There is no energy left to focus on and really support what is good, or what I love and admire. I work very hard to be objective and look at the things in this world I that are motivating, rather than the things in our world discourage. I also agree with Betsy that, when we become aware of something circulated by the media that truly troubles us, or truly inspires us- we need to let the media that is delivering it know how we feel. Hence, my letter here- I am writing to let you know that I appreciate what you wrote in the newsletter and I appreciate your thoughts and ideas on the subject.
Thanks!

I realize this is not strictly your territory (as a retired IT guy; IBM said I was too old.) but Jaime Zaragoza’s column incorrectly states that nerve cells do not regenerate post adolescence. This has been disproved several times since 1992. They do regenerate, just slowly.
