Letters to the Editor
Styring off the mark
January 28, 2012
I was frankly stunned when I read Bill Styring’s unfortunate [Jan. 23 Forefront] column on the mass transit proposal
being considered by the Indiana House Ways and Means Committee.
MorePerks not the point
January 28, 2012
Per Anthony Schoettle’s [Jan. 23] article on the unprecedented local corporate support to help the city land the Super
Bowl, I was disappointed by the lack of context given to the only quote used from our interview.
MoreIURC misunderstood
January 28, 2012
It was with disappointment that I read Julia Vaughn’s column in the Jan. 9 Forefront.
MoreBlame Penn State administrators
January 28, 2012
I take exception to Benner [Jan. 16 column] adding Pennsylvania State University in with the other schools that had football
scandals.
MoreHetrick created his own problem
January 28, 2012
I read with amazement Bruce Hetrick’s [Jan. 23] recent column about health care reform and an issue he had with Anthem
Blue Cross Blue Shield.
More'Right-to-work' is a charade
January 21, 2012
As an attorney who has practiced labor and employment law for 37 years, I’m concerned by the widespread confusion about
the so-called “right-to-work“ bill being promoted by Gov. Daniels.
MoreNot chump change
January 21, 2012
Talking heads and politicians are notoriously bad at math. Morton Marcus [Jan. 9 Forefront] acts as if paying higher wages
equates to something like 30 cents per diner. I think this is disingenuous.
MoreChurlish behavior isn't acceptable
January 21, 2012
John Krull is not an old fogey. His viewpoints [Dec. 26 Forefront] are what America was made of before all the too-open-minded
people, the too-liberal thinkers and the too-greedy people came to the forefront.
MoreHow to mix Manning, Luck
January 14, 2012
It’s sad to see the Polian era end. He brought football greatness to Indianapolis.
MoreGainsay art if taxes paid for it
January 14, 2012
Louis Mahern [Dec. 26 Forefront] cites an incident which was incredibly offensive to millions of Americans—a photo of
a crucifix submerged in a jar of urine—then moves easily on to say, “If an artist says it is art who are we to
gainsay it?”
MoreTechnology already helping commuters
January 7, 2012
Richard Sullivan’s letter to the editor [Jan. 2] makes some great observations about how few people take full advantage
of Indianapolis’ existing transit resources.
MoreMarkets can rein in health care costs
January 7, 2012
Congratulations to Rob Hillman, Anthem and UnitedHealthcare [Nov. 26] for allowing patients and health care consumers to shop
for lower-cost providers within their networks.
MoreUnleash biz on transit
December 31, 2011
So the big new mass transit plan has come out, and its main solution is … buses on roads. Government-owned buses, of
course.
MoreDon't snuff out rights
December 31, 2011
Smoking and secondhand smoke put people at risk. But I just don’t understand the mentality of people who are trying
to force their views on this topic.
MoreMourdock budget fails honesty test
December 24, 2011
On a careful review of Indiana State Treasurer Richard Mourdock’s federal budget plan released Nov. 15, it’s obvious
that Gov. Mitch Daniels, who knows something about federal budgeting, is in charge of the budget, not the state treasurer.
MoreRedistricting push is unnecessary
December 24, 2011
In “The Guns of August,” Barbara Tuchman wrote, “War is the unfolding of miscalculations.”
MoreWhere are the jobs from the stimulus?
December 24, 2011
According to Sheila Suess Kennedy’s [Dec. 19] column, doubling down on the $1 trillion stimulus package from 2009 will
result in a panacea of new jobs (23,000) per $1 billion.
MoreState manages risk
December 17, 2011
Ken Skarbeck’s column [Nov. 19] addressed a new strategy the Indiana Public Retirement System is using to diversify
its portfolio. T
MoreSmoking is antiquated
December 17, 2011
Keep up the writing on smoking [Nov. 28], and mention the contiguous counties, as well.
MoreChildren's Choir made memories
December 10, 2011
Greg Morris’ [Dec. 5 column ] about the Indianapolis Children’s Choir relates many of its extraordinary accomplishments
during the last 25 years, but its performances during the 7th FINA World Swimming Championships in Conseco Fieldhouse in 2004
need special attention.
MoreInsurers losing fight with hospitals
December 10, 2011
While I certainly support increases in transparency of cost and quality, I wonder why insurance companies need to resort to
gimmicks [“Insurers Push Comparison Shopping,” Nov. 28].
MorePatent reform helps small firms
December 3, 2011
Kristin Jones’ Nov. 26 column, “Patent reform is mixed bag for life sciences,” offered views on the impact
of the new patent law, the America Invents Act, on large and small life sciences companies in Indiana.
MoreSmoking column hit the target
December 3, 2011
Thanks so much for Mickey Maurer’s Nov. 28 “Mayor, Read the Smoke Signals” column. I still cannot believe
that Indianapolis and indeed, the entire state can be so backward related to creating a smoke-free environment.
MoreUp adjunct pay, Mr. McRobbie
December 3, 2011
An open letter to Indiana University President Michael McRobbie:
MoreRight-to-work view was appalling
December 3, 2011
It is stunning to read the editorial position [Nov. 28] of the foremost business journal in Indiana that cautions against
“right-to-work” legislation. Perhaps the writer forgets that Indiana has a 9-percent unemployment rate.

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.
