If I had known it would assume such prominent placement, I would have improved its composition. I do apologize for misspelling your name; I knew I should have checked the spelling but I had run out of time to write and I impolitely choose to press send to close the letter. <br />I also thank you for the well placed paragraph breaks. I hesitate to use them in comment boxes because many applications use an not as a line break but to send-post the comment. But the post read much better with appropriate subject divisions. <br />None-the-less, this brush with fame you offered suggests that few such complimentary posts are received at the SCPR. I am sorry that this infers a thankless job, for you obviously expend great time and effort to attend the council meetings and assemble detailed voter records. Few of us have time or the inclination. Nor is it particularly rewarding to become too involved as the private citizen-part time public servant (in the Jeffersonian model of democracy). I used to work with Mr. Mike Grady Esq. many years ago, and I know he had a thankless experience trying to offer his competence to local government. So you are our inside man, willing to fish the same holes of mundane council meetings every two weeks until the hard to hook "big fish issue" comes to the surface and you can report it to your readers (I apologize at this terrifically poor metaphor but I am practicing my Maryland-Virginia homilies). <br />So again I say, we, Stark County, are lucky to have you, Mr. Olson. I do clarify that this follow-up is not intended to capture the SCPR headlines in a repeat performance and is only worthy at most for those who may follow comments.
