Hello again,<\/p>\n

I was waiting for an answer in your last column to the questions posed.
\nSuch an exorbitant waste of materials and money to demolish Central.<\/p>\n

A town that wants to ban plastic grocery bags is silent about this?
\nWhere are the environmental progressives?<\/p>\n

School District has been given a pass on waaaay too many poor decisions.<\/p>\n

But it is a good thing that Gronseth is gone.
\nWonder if Judy and Ann W ever have regrets?<\/p>\n

LDV did its best.<\/p>\n

and my tardy reply:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hi XX. <\/p>\n

I was visiting my son in Ann Arbor when I noticed your message. I was planning to reply later and later got later and later. My apologies.<\/p>\n

The Red Plan is hardly gone but I only am inclined to nibble at its edges in the next couple of Readers so I won’t write a Martellesque condemnation. New readers are too late to the show to understand and old timers have had plenty of time to digest anything I have had to say on the subject. <\/p>\n

I was planning to write something comprehensive about what I have always been interested in – Education. But, I am discovering that my approach will be far too idiosyncratic to be anything l like comprehensive. It will barely be chronological. Much of it is stuff I’ve wanted to write while the world has been burning down. <\/p>\n

Keep your mask handy. It should help with both the Delta variant and the soot from Quetico.<\/p>\n
