Just curious. I didn't catch the letters portion but was hoping they were taken to task.

1. I hope so. I guess since she's "just a kid" they could get away
with giving her "equal time" - we just should admire her gumption. And her dad's spare time. Wonder who HE is.

Didn't their climate change series end this week too?

4. That's an excellent question about who her dad might be.
Remember that domain name fracas that was between McDonald's and some little kid some years ago? Only it turned out that the little kid had a lawyer dad playing it for everything it was worth?

5. The mother admitted she "did all the typing"
for what that's worth...

2. I wanted to reach into the speaker and strangle that little twerp.
I didn't hear the letters today either. Hope somebody did.

3. nope - link's up; they gave wrong info on tax rebate form deadline too

(it's October for people on Social Security, etc. who otherwise wouldn't have to pay, and they were talking about senior citizens rushing to get it in by April 15)
