Examiner Publishes My Anti-Oakland Anti-Litter Tax LTE

Discussion

Dear Everyone;
   
  After Fred Foldvary's Anti-litter tax OP/ED appeared in the Examiner I wrote a tongue in cheek riposte to Oakland's litter tax and by extension expanded on it. Enjoy the humor at Oakland's expense.
   
  And they did include the Libertarian affiliation.

Good job, Ron! How many published LTEs in the Examiner are you up to now, have you been counting? I have a minor suggestion, which is change "Chairman" in your title to the less old-fashioned sounding "Chair" in future letters, and either put a comma after it, or put it after "Initiative Committee" instead of before.

Yours in liberty,

Dear Starchild;
   
  Actually the previous Examiner LTE's have used "Chairman, Initiatives Committee" this one slipped by the Examiner editors without the comma after Chairman. The usage of chairman is AP format approved as opposed to Chair.
   
  So far this year 1 - OP/ED and 4 LTE's. With a potential OP/ED pending as part of the Writers Bureau. Last year 5 LTE's in Examiner with Libertarian showing and 4 in Chronicle without Libertarian showing.
