Move Black Expo to fairgrounds
July 31, 2010
As a downtown resident of over 30 years I feel that it is a privilege to use the facilities that we as a city have created
downtown. Black Expo has violated that privilege.
MorePoverty doesn't explain shooting
July 31, 2010
This problem [at Black Expo] is nothing new; it has a long history of violence and disrespect for the community we all live
in.
MoreEmployees drive company success
July 24, 2010
Mickey Maurer’s [July 12] column on choosing the right people is so “right on.”
MoreMaurer's employee column was spot-on
July 24, 2010
Without a doubt, it is
people that will either make or break you. Their success will absolutely determine yours.
MoreFieldhouse could have life without Pacers
July 24, 2010
The IBJ and others keep repeating that, should the Pacers leave, the city would be stuck with paying $14 [million]-$18
million a year in fieldhouse operating costs. Are you all assuming the facility will sit vacant? Come on.
MoreKeep government hands off of Internet
July 24, 2010
Tim Altom, in his July 19 column, replays the tired populist argument in favor of Net Neutrality, while furthering the myth
that government regulation magically makes things “fair.”
MoreDallara will further Speedway renaissance
July 24, 2010
Bringing Dallara to Speedway is a big win, not only for the Indy Racing League but for the town of Speedway and the Speedway
Redevelopment Commission.
MoreBond swap story was valuable
July 17, 2010
I just wanted to say “well done” regarding your [July 5] article [on bond swaps]. The subject of your report
has been a topic near and dear to my heart for about two years.
MoreAmos Brown has been boon to city
July 17, 2010
I thought your [July 5] article on Amos Brown was very well-done.
MoreIt takes time to appreciate soccer
July 17, 2010
I decided
to read [Bill Benner's June 28 column]—see, whenever there is soccer involved, my blood runs faster, my pulse gallops
and my
mind expands beyond reality.
MoreRight employees are critical
July 17, 2010
Good [column by Mickey Maurer in the July 12 issue]. I agree with you that the right people make all the difference
in the world.
MoreCrisis advice was dead-on
July 17, 2010
I want to thank you for your crisis tips in [Bruce Hetrick’s June 28 column]. You not only provided thoughtful commentary,
you helped me win an argument with the hubby.
MoreJohn Wooden essay was in poetry mag
July 17, 2010
I just came across [Bill Benner’s] touching June 14 article, and am excited to point out to you John Wooden’s
article, “The Great Scorer,” in the July/August issue of Poetry magazine.
MoreWorld Cup offers sports at its best
July 10, 2010
Soccer is pure sport, in the best and most meaningful sense of the word.
MoreArts groups support each other
July 3, 2010
We are writing to give our wholehearted endorsement to [columnist] Greg Morris’ appeal for generous support for the
Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra (“Confessions of a symphony newbie,” June 21).
MoreCity Market should build on immigrant roots
July 3, 2010
I would like to suggest that the 124-year-old
landmark serve as an anchor for a broader vision of the near-east side.
MoreAvoiding fraud easier than recovery
July 3, 2010
We want to
emphasize ways that investors can avoid fraudulent schemes, as the opportunity for restitution rarely compensates investors
for their losses.
MoreWorld Cup nations were confused
July 3, 2010
Bill Benner' sopinion lost all credibility
for me in the end, though, because he obviously didn’t do his homework.
MoreUtility user fees to be diverted
July 3, 2010
A [wrong] is being perpetrated on the citizens
of Indianapolis by our city-county councilors, Mayor Greg Ballard and the board of Citizens Energy, by negotiating a “sale”
of the water company to Citizens.
MoreIndiana municipal bonds are faring well
June 26, 2010
The “Investing” column of June 14, “Municipal bond defaults might be next crisis,” raises some valid
points, but portrays municipal bonds in such a manner that is too general.
MoreHealth care column got it wrong
June 19, 2010
As a practicing physician, I was disappointed by [Morton Marcus’] support of the recently passed health care legislation
[in his May 31 column].
MoreEnvironmentalists contributed to spill
June 19, 2010
[In response to Bruce Hetrick’s June 14 column] Those that are calling for more government involvement in response
to the BP oil spill are not those who typically call for “less government.
MoreCity 'investments' often no such thing
June 19, 2010
Even if the new system does slow down property tax increases, actually capping one source of revenue will never
solve taxpayer problems.
MorePre-race ceremony didn't measure up
June 19, 2010
Good [Bill Benner column on June 7] on the recap of the 500. One area that I disagree with you was your praise for the pre-race
ceremony. It was plain awful this year.
MoreJohn Wooden column was a favorite
June 19, 2010
John Wooden has been my idol and will
continue to be someone I strive to be for as long as I am breathing. I know that I am not the only one who feels this way.

If a television station wants to improve viewership, get rid of the local blackout. I was born by the brickyard, and have attended 15 or more races. I have children now, I won't attend unless circumstances are perfect. As those with growing families know, they never are. I'm always impressed that upwards of 250,000 people attend the 500. However, as a growing, or, more apt, sprawling city, Indianapolis and its immediate suburbs count almost 2.2 million. Show the race live, let the venue get a kick-back on revenues, and open-wheel racing might have a fighting chance to be relevant again. Just in time for those tax-payer lights to make sense.
John Moore, I too have had the same issue recently. A property next to my house was on the Land Bank and I was interested in purchasing. When I tried to contact Reggie, I got back emails that had nothing to do with what I asked about. Actually my latest response from him was on this past Friday. I had asked about how to buy the property and if it was still available. His response to me was to contact the mayor's office to get the schedule of his appearances. (???) Hopefully the city is able to do something to fix what this guy has done, it would be nice if they would take the properties back and sell them properly so land owners like me and you mother would have a fair chance.
I too work in the industry, with over 25 years of experience and your political spin has probably nothing to do with any rebranding. "Let's dress it up" would have nothing to do with the government "telling us how and what to eat." Give it a political rest. And being a producer for a radio show doesn't mean you've been involved in advertising and branding for 30 years.
Ms. Morris did not understand the ways of the business world, otherwise, like the IMS, she could have petitioned the State Legislature for a handout of State Funds for her charity work. Ms. Morris should consider becoming a state lobbyist for Lemonade Stand Operators.
David Copperfield!
