In response to the Jan. 28th "Choosing freely" letter, I'd like to address a few points Ms. Kneeland made. First of all, referring to adopted homes as not being loving is inaccurate. Some of these adopted parents wait up to three years for a baby and...

In response to Adrienne's letter on abortion, "Choosing Freely," I do have some disagreement. I find certain things exaggerated. One would not die if one does not choose to abort. This is a free country. There are so many agencies and centers providing...

If you had a choice between this column, a stuffed pizza, or sex, what would you pick? As much as my ego would love to believe my columns rate way up there with what's said to be one of the top three pleasures of human existence, most of you probably...

On Feb. 5, 1987, the United States government will have another nuclear weapons test. This test will release, as usual, downwind radiation. The incidence of leukemia is 40 percent higher than normal in the communities that surround the Nevada test site....

Jon and Marie Waldschmidt, what gives you the right to speak for all the musicians, doctors, teachers, poets, writers, scientists, world leaders, mothers and housewives of the world? The decision for a woman to have an abortion is a personal one, and...

Last Sunday as I was driving home listening to WLS, I heard one of the DJs say something that summed up the longing a lot of us now have for successful national leadership with integrity and control. The DJ was reading her daily list of that day's birthdays...

It appears, Mr. Lacy, that "bleeding heart liberals" are not the only myopic critics. Your defense of the National Guard activity in Honduras rests on two premises: 1) that the Guard is receiving valuable training "that they can't receive at home," road...

For quite some time, there has been a student representative from each of the three Board of Regents schools sitting on the board and attending its meetings. For that same period of time, those student representatives have not had the power to vote. Now,...

This letter is written in response to your editorial entitled "Alien Employment Needs Monitoring." It is very apparent that research in the area was very much lacking on your part. First and foremost is the fact that there are no illegal aliens unless...

Without a doubt, most people by now are tired of reading about the whole Iran-contra—"I hate Reagan so much, I could kill him" thing that's been going down in Washington since November. I'm tired of it too. But bear with me on this, because I've been...
