Dear Mr. Meyer:

No matter where a person might stand on Aaron Ament's motion to issue a  
moratorium on conditional use permits, any person reading your post  
would find that it smacks too much of sour grapes. I commend you on  
continuing to attend council meetings and issuing your opinions, but  
you would serve yourself, and your cause, better if you would lessen  
the bitterness of tone in your election loss. It shows poor  
sportsmanship, and confirms the good logic of our city's voters in  
their November choices.
