Dear BTL,
I lived in Detroit for several years after 2000 and always attempted to get my hands on this publication. Now I reside in Orlando and continue to check in through the Web portal and follow up with this paper. In particular, it is with great interest that I read the articles by Chris Azzopardi in Between The Lines. His articles have often made me laugh and the insight I believe he has for many different topics has proved thought provoking and is a pleasure to experience. Thank you for producing a consistently excellent publication and, as always, I look forward to the next issue. Please tell Mr. Azzopardi I am grateful.
Ross Trumble,
Orlando, Fla.
