Treebywater Posted November 7, 2005 Posted November 7, 2005 Yippee!!! They printed my letter to the Editor in our newspaper on Saturday! I didn't spot it. Daddy did. I'm so glad they didn't blow it off. http://www.registermail.com/stories/110505/LET_B814QA7Q.GID.shtml Quote

tnmynatt Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 Val, Great job! I may plagiarize some of it, if that's ok. I'm sure your mom is proud of you. Take care. Quote
jang Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 Great letter Val! Mine was printed in our local newspaper too... but it's a very small newspaper, no website link. I am hoping that it will get published in the Washington Post and Baltimore Sun. It's time we wake these people up! Quote

SJAS Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Congratulations on a well-written letter, Val. It's not easy to make it to the top of the heap of letters written to the editor to become the published one. It really is such an important part of drawing attention to our cause. Thanks for your efforts! Quote

SDianneB Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 I just got around to looking at that letter - it is fantastic! I've been writing to two local morning show (TV) anchors who seemed to be interested, until October came and went, and now they won't even respond. I may sit and try to put together something like what you wrote and see if they will at least respond to it. You did a super job. Thanks. Di Quote
