Commentary Update for December 13, 2001: Open Letter To Council, Seaver, State Corruption

Dear Friends of Commentary:

The program with Chancellor Wells will probably not be on the rest of the week due to technical problems. If I become aware of broadcast times I will let you know.

A few items on the website you might find of interest. First, I happened to catch the Oshkosh Common Council meeting the other night and was so impressed by the statements of students Courtney Perlino and Ryan Reilly on the recycling issue that I wrote them an open letter:

Meanwhile, Harmon Seaver (author of the www.oshkoshbygosh.org website) sent out a press release reporting on his latest battle with the Mayor and City Attorney:

Finally, the corruption in our state legislature has now reached the point where we have been profiled in the prestigious stateline.org:

All the best,
