Dale,

I didn't remember any mention of a flyer in the article in the Daily =
News,
so I re-read it, and again, there was no mention of a flyer.  Are you
objecting that the article contains factual errors?  Or are you merely =
upset
that some flyer (which I have never seen and in fact hadn't heard about
until I read Doug Wilson's post this morning) led the reporter to write =
the
story?=20

When a well-known person in town takes a position on an issue like =
slavery,
and a conference is scheduled to discuss the subject, how does =
publishing an
article about it reduce the Daily News to the level of the National
Enquirer?  If you were addressing factual errors in the article, I might
come closer to understanding your position. =20
