| 2 CommentsDear Mr. Hamill,
Every day there are countless factual errors in your newspaper. I forgive most every one–it’s surely hard work to meet a deadline day in and day out. Every day there are also a handful of cringeworthy efforts at cleverness. These gratuitous wastes of ink are, with rare exception, less forgivable. [...]

Because of Chambers, the Legislature routinely backs bills its members wouldn’t otherwise have dreamed of supporting. He cajoled his colleagues into abolishing corporal punishment in schools, correcting the state pension system so that women would be treated [...]

responsible for what. (The function of bureaucracy is to disguise the origin
and nature of a mistake, so CYA procedures are always fully in place.) You’d
think that if the mistake at hand involved many dead bodies, it might be
necessary to discover who was [...]
