Your headline [on the Jan. 25 Viewpoint] said it all: “Find a mentor to make you better.” January was
national mentoring month to raise awareness of the power of mentoring, which is often thought of as valuable for youth.

Your decision to discontinue the printing of stock prices and economic activity charts, as announced in your Jan. 17 issue,
was extremely disappointing to us as well as, surely, to other paid subscribers.

Re: Bruce Hetrick’s [Jan. 11 column] “Hey kids! Come and get your pound of flesh,” at first I was stunned.
Then I was speechless. After that I was just plain mad.

By the time the next IBJ hits the newsstands we’ll know whether it’s the Colts or The Team the Colts

Since I canâ??t summarize this exciting four-plus-hour [Hoosier Dylan] concert nearly as well as [the Jan. 18 Louâ??s Views
column], I will merely agree with you verbatim on your precise review—including your disappointment with Indianaâ??s
poet laureate.

It is not the government’s (taxpayers’) responsibility to provide for an individual’s health care. The
“general welfare” clause in the Constitution is just that—general.

After reading [Morton Marcus’ Jan. 4 column] on the economics of government, I would like to nominate you for the
Nobel Prize for Economics and Government 101.

My letter is in response to Kathleen McLaughlin’s excellent [Dec. 28] article, “Charity mergers scarce.” While
all of the comments shared are well-considered, the elephant in the room is nonprofit closures.

n response to your Dec. 21 article labeling the Indiana Future Fund as “off to slow start,” I believe some
additional historical perspective is warranted.

Is there enough money coming in to keep the city's world-class sports facilities maintained, pay them off, put enough away
for
the inevitable refurbishing that they will need over time and also promote Indianapolis?

Bruce Hetrick's [Dec. 28] “Could we start again?” article really made me remember the hope and excitement of
the new millennium 10 years ago.

As Congress debates health care reform, it’s easy to lose sight of what we agree on—and what we know works
to prevent disease and lower costs. Helping people quit smoking and keeping young people from starting are proven ways to
reduce the awful toll of cancer, heart attacks and other serious illnesses.

I am writing in response to the Dec. 14 On the Beat article (“Firm undergoes name change”). First, since leaving
my former company, which had still been using the Sponsel name, I’m happy to have my name back solely for my use.

I loved [Benner’s Dec. 14] column [about Indiana Sports Corp.]. Thirty years is not a long history, but I’ll bet
most folks in Indy don’t
know about this.

Thanks for your [editorial] in [the Dec. 7] IBJ. I really appreciated the comparison [between businessmen Tim Durham
and Jim Dodson] and plan to reference this
article (now hanging in my office) as a reality check.

[Mickey Maurer’s Nov. 30 column] was the second article criticizing Mayor [Greg] Ballard on his position against

Simultaneously disturbing and telling is how I found “Big Dance may get bigger” in the Dec. 14 edition of the

[In response to Chris Katterjohn’s Nov. 21 column] In ’73 I was a grad student in a master’s health care

As a physician, I owe it to my patients to help get health care reform right. From the front line, physicians can offer
changes that could result in more cost-effective, efficient and accessible health care. That’s why I joined the Coalition
to Protect Patients’ Rights, along with 10,000 other doctors.

In your Nov. 2 edition, Tom Henderson weighed in on the new Indy Airport experience. One of his complaints about the new
midfield terminal was that, without competition, available parking options have you where they want you. He realized, why
complain when it is a fait accompli? There is, however, another option.

I have always found Morton Marcus’ columns both entertaining and informative. I read the Dec. 7 column, in which
Marcus seems to insinuate that property taxes were acceptable as they were and do not require modifications. As a resident
of Marion County, I could not disagree more.

It was with great interest that I read Morton Marcus’ [Nov. 30] column encouraging us to spend responsibly this holiday
season, and to “give a check to your local adult literacy program.” It was with added delight when I read Theresa
Rhodes’ column on the same page suggesting that readers consider volunteering by “helping an adult learn to read.

My family and I don’t follow sports. We don’t know current actors or

It's also across the street from Fogo de Chao and Morton's....
Yep, the haters are trying to make good news bad. I guess it is hard to get people to believe the series is dying when they are gaining new sponsors.
David Copperfield! I remember watching his specials on TV when I was little.
Don't forget this is next to an MMA gym, a pawn shop, and some abandoned spaces.
Good project for Zionsville - A group who has owned the property for many years has waited and worked patiently to bring highest and best use development to a major corridor, and mix that in with the great downtown you have. Win Win. All the Best to Pittman Partners and Zionsville.
