The article “No More Classical Radio” (Dec. 27) by Obie Yadgar touched a nerve. Yadgar’s thoughts and conclusions are right on target. I have been a loyal listener since WFMR was broadcast from Wauwatosa and did not carry very far. Giant strides have been made, including pumping up the wattage output.

The Jan. 24 edition contained two articles (actually three, counting the cover story) of significance. First Mr. Conason hit the nail on the head describing our debacle in Iraq (“What They Call ‘Progress’ in Iraq”).

I’m responding to this quote from EarthTalk: “The remaining Republicans (Rudy Giuliani, Fred Thompson and Ron Paul) have, at best, been noncommittal on climate change and environmental issues in general.”

I read with great interest Lisa Kaiser’s article “A Field of Dreams: Competing Visions for Housing and River Restoration” (Jan. 10). I have firsthand experience placing individuals with chronic mental illness in housing, which is not an easy task.

Thanks for the article “Don’t Stay in School” (by Joel McNally, Jan. 17). My child is in a Waukesha County school and has been sent home for some of the NO TOLERANCE issues, and I don’t mean weapons.

On Jan. 22, America marked the 35th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Roe v. Wade. As a graduate student and one of four women in my family, it has been extremely important for me to know that Roe v. Wade allows me to make my own decisions.

Thank you, thank you for reporting on the importance of buying locally (“Shop Smart” by Evan Rytlewski, Nov. 29).
