Letters to the Editor
Praise for 'Q' column
October 16, 2010
I agree with [Mickey Maurer’s Oct. 4] thoughts on the “Q factor.” In the first 14 years of my career, I
never considered it. The result was seven relocations and our kids being in three schools by fifth grade.
MoreSome examples of gutlessness
October 9, 2010
Morton Marcus is right when he says [in the Sept. 13 issue], “Gutless government avoids political risk.” I just
differ with him on which items on the list of government activities, or lack thereof, constitute such “gutlessness.”
MoreOnline shopping isn't the problem
October 9, 2010
It is disingenuous of Indiana lawmakers to claim low Internet taxation puts some firms at a competitive disadvantage when
their goal is likely just to bring in more tax revenue, not level the playing field.
MoreDuke Energy maintains trust
October 2, 2010
A [Sept. 27] IBJ article reported on a settlement Duke Energy and several customer groups have reached on costs associated
with construction of the company’s clean-coal technology power plant in Edwardsport.
MoreIndiana missed stimulus opportunity
October 2, 2010
Kudos to Mary Dieter and IBJ for the investigative journalism that led to the [Sept. 27] publication of the
disturbing disclosure that the Daniels administration failed to pursue up to $103 million in federal stimulus money that would
benefit Hoosier small businesses and workers.
MoreIndiana Sports Corp. intimidates IBJ
October 2, 2010
Make no mistake about it, we are calling you out, in your own publication. Indiana Sports Corp. has about 30 staffers; we
both run the event and run in the event. We want to go head-to-head with Team IBJ next year!
More'Greener Welcome' will be powerful
October 2, 2010
In just a few days, thousands of Lilly employees will descend upon Interstate 70. The purpose: a massive makeover we’re
calling “A Greener Welcome.” It will naturalize 10 acres of vacant interchanges.
MoreParking meter deal is boon for city
September 25, 2010
The proposed parking transaction with ACS is another example of the mayor streamlining government, maximizing the value of
existing assets, and securing millions of dollars for infrastructure improvements.
MoreNFL lockout risky
September 25, 2010
I hope NFL owners and players take into account, while contemplating a lockout, the effect on the fans.
MoreMeter deal is a bad idea
September 18, 2010
I read with interest [Cory Schouten’s] article in the Aug. 30 IBJ, “City vendor may get $1.2B,”
detailing aspects of the city’s proposed deal to privatize the city’s parking meters.
MoreBiglari Holdings not worth covering
September 18, 2010
I find the continued press coverage about Steak-n-Shake and Biglari Holdings to be irrelevant to our community and a waste
of IBJ’s valuable resources.
MoreMaurer 'walks the talk'
September 18, 2010
Re: Mickey Maurer’s Sept. 6 article, “Kindness is a measure of success,” my experiences with him show he
“walks the talk.”
MorePraise for Maurer columns
September 18, 2010
I am enjoying [Mickey Maurer’s] articles in IBJ about the essential principles of entrepreneurship. They are
very worthwhile and well-written.
MoreIndiana leads charge on electric cars
September 18, 2010
In Indianapolis, it looks like the electric car is much closer to rounding the corner, with Energy Systems Network’s
recent announcement that the partnership is launching a pilot project that will, it seems, make electric commutes a reality
here and eventually across the United States.
MoreCity takes safety seriously
September 11, 2010
One of my first priorities as mayor was returning the police department to the mayor’s office. I did this because I
believe protecting our neighborhoods, our businesses and our families to be the highest responsibility I bear as mayor.
MoreHelp our kids pursue degrees
September 4, 2010
Recent columns from Mickey Maurer (“Even CEOs need mentors,” Aug. 9) and Bruce Hetrick (“How to make the
recession last forever,” Aug. 21) underscore important (and related) ideas, namely that everyone needs help and guidance
to succeed, and that success in postsecondary education among our children is no longer an option.
MoreDon't blame UAW workers
September 4, 2010
It seems that all the pundits from Rush Limbaugh to the World Socialist Website have entered the fray concerning the fate
of the Indianapolis stamping plant, while the real culprits escape scrutiny and feign innocence.
MoreMaking a difference, one child at a time
September 4, 2010
ReadUp is a response to the startling truth that more than 30 percent of our community’s fourth-graders are two or more
years behind in reading.
MoreNo to meter hikes
August 28, 2010
[In response to the Aug. 16 editorial] Now has come the time that I will no longer be able to support downtown. I will miss
it dearly!
MoreMuseums can't change canal alone
August 28, 2010
As a longtime downtown resident and property owner, and frequent user of the Central Canal, I read with great interest the
[Aug. 16] article “Missing the action: Museums struggle to capture foot traffic from busy canal."
MoreMentor knew how to keep his head
August 21, 2010
In reference to Mickey Maurer’s column in the Aug. 9 edition, Mickey and I, along with probably many others, had the
same mentor, Gene Glick.
MoreGM deal promising for local automaker
August 21, 2010
Now that Bright Automotive has announced a strategic partnership [with] General Motors, we think IBJ should reconsider
the title it gave a recent article about the company (Aug 2, “Losing power?”). We’d suggest “Powering
up!”
MoreCoaches, mentors often confused
August 21, 2010
[Mickey Maurer] really did a great job in [his Aug. 9 column,] “Even CEOs need mentors.” I agree that having
a mentor, or having someone to coach you, is valuable.
MoreAttendance figures were inconsistent
August 21, 2010
I was disappointed in the lack of fair and accurate reporting in Kathleen McLaughlin’s article, “Missing the
action: Museums struggle to capture foot traffic from busy Central Canal,” which was published in the Aug. 16 edition.
MoreWe must explore alternative energy
August 14, 2010
The Viewpoint essay penned by Peter Grossman [in the July 26 issue] was infuriating.

Laura-the festivals and tastings are free. What does is strengthen the sense of community with activities. What are those empty lots doing for the Village? it's sad you can't see the good that this progress can do for the area. No one is requiring anyone to shop there. I guess you'd rather see a Dollar store move in or no, we'd rather see the property stand empty b/c change is out of the question.
Read down to the part about Brizzi. Someone needs to subpoena his "purchases" of Red RockPictures and Cellstar and his corresponding bank records, I mean c'mon, I'd like to see his alcohol usage records, too. http://diana-vice.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wonder if my neighborhood can advertise our "retention" pond and act like it is a beach too?
a new record at the '11 salebration until they realized that it was a futile effort to get their crapwagon moter and crapwagon car up speed. And then they just quietly slunk off into the night and never spoke of it again. Nothing to see here folks.
millions for putting a company's bumper sticker on one of its Lolas. But you gotta take what you can get.
