· A reader sends a thumbs-up to Kale Starbird for her recent detailed letter about the "injustice and insanity" of our national economic policies and practices. Her letters are always clear, calm and fact-filled.

· A reader sends a thumbs-up to all people who are able to have and espouse their personal opinions without infringing on the dignity or rights of another.

· A reader sends a huge "Red, White and Blue" thumbs-up to the family on Rice Road, who is displaying the giant "Old Glory" on the roof of their home! They know how to show support for our country and our fine men and women fighting for freedom - like ours - in Iraq!

· A reader sends a thumbs-up to all our service men and women who are risking their necks to make sure a Sept. 11th never happens again. We love you and hope you come home safe. The people of Iraq will love you too!

· A reader sends a thumbs-up to the Ojai Unified School District Board of Education for advocating and supporting the arts as integral parts of the cirriculum.

· A reader sends a thumbs-up to everyone who participated in the global candlelight vigil.


· A reader sends a double thumbs-down to the young mother who left her toddler inside a parked car on Blanche Street, motor running, windows rolled up, for approximately five minutes. Shame on her for putting the baby at risk like that. Police responded, but she drove off before they arrived.

· A reader sends a thumbs-down to all the demonstrators demonstrating against the United States. Why aren't you demonstrating against Saddam Hussein? He's the killing innocent people and using unlawful weapons on his own people!

· A reader sends a thumbs-down to the "fourth Reich's" threats to educational funding - remember, regime change begins at home!

· A reader sends a thumbs-down to planting oak trees in rows, they are gregarious and like to grow in groves.
