Jean Wright: Sexism wrong
Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2008
The same press that once adored Bush and who followed his lead in denouncing those who disagreed with him as “unpatriotic” are continuing in the same vein. Read this letter and add your comments »

Marie Matta: Concerned about talk
Wednesday, Aug. 6, 2008
Thank you for publishing Judith Gunthorpe’s letter (July 27 and 30) drawing attention to factual errors in a recent talk by Pastor Mujahid El Masih on Islam and Christianity. I too attended that talk and also was concerned about his approach and conclusions. Read this letter and add your comments »
Steve Lewis: Agreement flawed
Sunday, Aug. 3, 2008
There are two significant flaws in the current draft of the pre-annexation agreement for Steamboat 700. First is the 20-year vesting of “...permitted uses.” Ten-year vesting of uses may be fair in order to stabilize 700’s market expectations, but 20-year vesting is not a smart move by the city.

And you thought California wildfires moved fast. They are nothing compared to our elected real estate City Council.

Although most people hold firefighters in high regard, my sons Kaleb and Kasen view Steamboat’s crew as nothing short of superheroes.

Sunday, Aug. 3, 2008
The Routt County Rifle Club was born just after the start of World War II by an informal group of local shooters. I have not been able to find any exact names or records. Surely, Elwood Bradley was one of them.

Sunday, Aug. 3, 2008
I wanted to thank Tanya, Dana, Joel and everyone at Rocky Mountain Pet Resort in Yampa for saving my dog’s life. Sebastian is a chow/lab mix who was “on vacation” in one of their fine doggie suites when his stomach twisted, a condition that often kills dogs.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008
I was so happy to read that we have all this undeveloped land to develop. The developers must be beside themselves. Just imagine Lincoln Avenue between 13th Street and Third Street. Glenwood’s Grand Avenue would pale by comparison. Oh, and how about all the noise and dust of the building? Just sit on a bench now on Lincoln Avenue and “enjoy” the heavy trucks. At least put up an “Entering a construction zone” sign five to 10 miles on each end of town.

Judith Gunthorpe: Religion talk troubling
Wednesday, July 30, 2008
Last Sunday evening (July 20), I attended a talk comparing Islam and Christianity given by Mujahid El-Hasih at Holy Name Catholic Church. The speaker compared texts from the Bible and Quran. Not being familiar with the Quran, I am not in a position to judge his commentary.

Dan Hulslander: Roundabout risky
Wednesday, July 30, 2008
I would like to know whose decision it was to replace the intersection of Mount Werner Circle and Après Ski Way with a traffic circle. Over the course of a normal work day, I pass through this area several times and have done so for the last nine years. At any given time of the year, this was the easiest flowing intersection on the mountain.

Sunday, July 27, 2008
On July 10, 2008, our region was fortunate to have Dr. Mike Osterholm speak during a Seminars at Steamboat lecture in the Strings Pavilion. To an audience of nearly 350 people, he highlighted a significant amount of data surrounding past pandemic influenza events and the potential impacts of future scenarios. He examined the planning efforts here in the U.S. and discussed global successes and failures related to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), pandemic flu and others.
