<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I find it interesting that the person who wrote the article in the Moscow
Daily news didn't bother to verify any information or at least practice some
sort of fact finding, like for instance if this person "D" was "severely
disabled" and "non-verbal" then how did this episode take place, how did he
say "Hey Hey Hey" to the waitress and how did he move about and become so
active if he indeed he is that "severley disabled" and if you read the email
submitted by the "Daughter" at 5pm last night on vision2020, "D" in fact lives
on his own, yeah that is severe all right! <BR>What disturbes me the
most is the author of this article gave credibility to this Mr. Hopper and is
indeed as guilty of ruining Archie's on the Square's reputation as the person
who decided to take his personal agenda to the streets of Moscow.</DIV>
<DIV>I am saddend that such good people have been drug through the mud and the
Moscow residents will ultimetly suffer if they in fact manage to ruin the
business of good caring people. To bad for the ignorant I
guess!<BR><BR><BR><B><I>Chasuk <chasuk@gmail.com></I></B> wrote:</DIV>
