Citizen's Perspective
Parents everywhere
live with an underlying dread, a mind-numbing whisper of foreboding,
that they will one day get that call in the night the call that will
shatter their world when it reveals to them that their child has been
involved in a terrible accident.
Buckhead
is a class lesson

I have never been
an evolutionist, but I do subscribe to the idea of survival of the fittest
in a lot of ways. And that is precisely why the Buckhead nightlife scene
is thriving and no one will ever kill it.

Is it possible,

ECCA
seeks support for performing arts center in old Carmike Cinema
As many of you are
aware, the Endowment Committee for Cultural Arts of Fayette County has
been actively searching for a facility that would serve as a center
for the arts in Fayette County.
NBC
disappoints many in its brief coverage of Fayette band
I am writing to
express my disappointment in the NBC television broadcast coverage of
the Olympic Marching Band during the opening ceremonies of the 2000
Sydney Olympics. The international band comprised 2,000 accomplished
student musicians from 20 countries. Most of the musicians were high
school age. The band members have been practicing and raising money
to finance the Sydney trip for well over a year. Nearly half of the
band came from the United States.

for community theater groups.
PTC
ignores rail danger to proposed new school
The mayor of Peachtree
City along with council members Brooks and McMenamin have begun an unprecedented
display of supercilious deeds that will increase traffic and send our
county school system to even lower depths. Last Wednesday's vote on
the Katz property and the failure to reappoint Planning Commission member
Willis Granger should serve as a call to action for all parents in Fayette
County.
Country
is on the wrong course
I am very concerned
these days about the state of our country. As I read the local paper
and Internet news stories, I see several articles that make me question
how this country got so far off course from our founding fathers.

We
have some great libraries here
Of all the grand
American institutions I made firsthand experience with since my relocation
from Europe 12 years ago, the country's public libraries are my favorites.
What
genius designed this mess?
Who's big idea was
the re-configuration of Ga. Highway 92 and Jimmy Mayfield Boulevard?
Do you really think this was the answer to the traffic problem?
