Mr. Barrow, I give to you a lot of credit for your analysis of the UDP's
recent pronouncement. Consistency and objectivity is what will help the
UDP's credibility. It is very unfortunate that our papers that are online,
vis-a-vis the Daily Observer and the Independent don't include the letters
that people write and the opinion columns in their online publications. This
is very sad as it would have given you and many like you an idea of what
several people have requested from the UDP to no avail.
Have a good day and bye 4Now, KB Jobe.
