To the Editor:

I occasionally submit letters to the editor, often in response to either an article or letter previously published, usually regarding the political scene. Most often what I submit is accepted and published in local papers’ editorial sections.

Fortunately, of the many responses I receive (letters and calls), most are quite supportive, about 90-plus percent, and some are negative. It’sthe way of the world, as it should be – healthy differences of opinion, all well received.
