Whitestown considers requesting address change

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Town of Whitestown is considering asking USPS to allow its businesses to change the town designation used in their addresses. Many Whitestown ZIP CODES businesses — and residents — have a Zionsville mailing address, which has led to a great deal of confusion, Town Manager Dax Norton said.

The Whitestown Town Council tabled a resolution Sept. 13 that would give Norton clearance to petition USPS to allow Whitestown businesses that do not use Whitestown in their address to do so if they choose.

The resolution states that because Whitestown has four ZIP codes that use four municipality names (Whitestown, Zionsville, Lebanon and Brownsburg) in addresses, it has caused confusion that has led to: • Some Whitestown businesses improperly collecting Zionsville’s 1 percent food and beverage tax.

• Whitestown residents being unable to locate and obtain timely local government services.

• Whitestown businesses spending unnecessary resources publicizing and advertising wrong locations.

• Whitestown residents being disenfran-

chised because of confusion about in which elections they are entitled to vote.

• Residents of other communities expecting services provided by Whitestown.

• Threats to public safety when the correct location of a resident or business cannot be accurately determined.

• Misdirected mail.

Several residents attended the meeting to express concerns about a potential change

to their address, but before they spoke Norton told the council the resolution is directed only at businesses. The proposed resolution included references to Whitestown residents being allowed to switch town names in their addresses, but Norton and the councilors asked for that language to be removed before the next council meeting.

Realtor David Harting, who lives in a Whitestown neighborhood with a Zionsville address and sells homes in the area, told the council many of his neighbors were worried about how an address change would affect property values.

The day after the meeting, he said he didn’t know if an address change would affect home values, but it could affect how some buyers view the community.

“The perception is that Zionsville is where they’re supposed to be,” he said. “Would a buyer not look at the same home because it’s in Whitestown? That’s a perception issue.

That depends on the buyer and the buyer’s preferences.”

The proposed resolution also states that if USPS denies the town’s request that the town will request USPS amend ZIP code boundaries to match the town’s corporate boundaries.

The council’s next scheduled meeting is 7 p.m. Oct. 11.

MetroNet halts work in area

High-speed internet provider MetroNet has stopped all work in the Central Indiana area after the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission found it responsible for infrastructure 10 out of 20 incidents that damaged gas lines in Carmel and Fishers in recent weeks.

The Evansville-based company is constructing a service building west of Bennett Parkway on Old 106th Street in Zionsville, but it has not yet begun installing fiber optic lines underground.

With work halted in the region, MetroNet spokeswoman Linda Jackson said she does not know when digging might begin in Zionsville.

The cities of Carmel and Fishers ordered MetroNet to stop installing new lines after its subcontractors damaged nine gas lines in Carmel and 11 in Fishers. The City of Westfield did the same thing after damage to a gas line Sept.

8 resulted in gas leaking into the sewer system.

MetroNet President John Cinelli said the company is taking the IURC’s findings seriously and that its goal is “always to protect public safety.”

“We are voluntarily pausing all underground construction in Central Indiana while we conduct further contractor training,” Cinelli stated.

“We are committed to providing a world-class fiber optic infrastructure in Indiana and building it in a responsible manner.”

Carmel spokeswoman Nancy Heck said that the affected Hamilton County communities are discussing local legislation that would give municipalities the ability to fine MetroNet or others for certain violations.

Zionsville Town Manager Ed Mitro stated in an email that officials are “well aware of the issues” in Hamilton County and that they plan to closely monitor MetroNet’s installation process in Zionsville. In February, the Zionsville Town Council approved issuing $1.5 million in Indiana Economic Development Revenue Bonds and using tax increment financing to make it financially feasible for MetroNet to bring its services to Zionsville.

The IURC report stated that six of the incidents were found to be caused by utility companies not marking gas lines properly, and another four incidents did produce enough evidence to show a law was violated.

Construction is complete on a new roundabout at the CONSTRUCTION intersection of Ford and Mulberry roads.

The Boone County Highway Dept. is microsurfacing roads in several Zionsville area neighborhoods, including Oakwood, Cooper Heights, Fieldstone, Pineview, Saratoga, Lynn Lea, Deer Ridge and Fox Run. The project includes extending the pavement surface and overlaying it with asphalt.

County Road 400 S./425 S. is closed between CR 650 E. and 750 E. as crews work on the 300 S./400 S. connector project in east Whitestown. Two lanes are under construction, although ultimately it is planned to be a four-lane divided roadway. The project is expected to continue into 2018.

The Zionsville Community Schools Board of Trustees heard presentations on a variety of topics at its Sept. 11 education meeting, including one on the college readiness program at Zionsville Community High School.

ZCHS Assistant Principal Greg McDaniel, along with Dana Nelson, college and career transition coordinator, said the program relies heavily on Naviance Family Connection, an online system that streamlines the college and career search process by allowing students to personalize their search.

Ninth-grade students focus on exploration to discover their strengths and weaknesses. Students use that information in 10th grade to start exploring careers that suit their skills. Juniors begin matching colleges with their interests. Senior year is focused on finalizing applications.

During the process, school counselors also have a heavy weight on their shoulders because of transcripts. McDaniel said counselors might be required to answer multiple questions, or even write an essay, about a specific senior when sending in transcripts. Board members expressed concern about that workload when McDaniel said the ZCHS ratio is one counselor to more than 250 students, with about 85 being seniors.

“We are at or slightly below average in terms of numbers of students, so I’m pretty comfortable with that,” McDaniel said.

The board also heard a presentation from Ann Pagano from the Musical Instrument Endowment, which provides funding for instruments for the ZCHS band. In July, the endowment purchased a set of four timpani drums for the percussion section that cost more than $12,000. They replaced a drum that was more than 40 years old.

Amy Conrad, ZCHS teacher and global engagement coordinator, introduced high school students who discussed their summer study abroad experience through Indiana University.

“Obviously, these students are amazing, and they have learned so much. I’m just really happy to have them here to recognize the ways that they had that experience and the ways they are also bringing it back to the community here,” Conrad said.

The next meeting is 6 p.m. Oct. 9. It will include the annual budget hearing.

Fair to match volunteers, nonprofits

By Renee Larr • news@currentzionsville.com The Community Foundation of Boone County wants to match volunteers with 40 nonprofit organizations giving back during its Volunteer Board and Recruitment Fair from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Sept. 27 at the Witham Pavilion at the Boone County 4-H Fairgrounds.

“This is a first for Boone County,” said Tiffany Perdue, CFBC director of communications and development. “Hendricks County did this and it was very Perdue successful, so we thought what better way to engage the people in the community than to have them come out and meet the nonprofits here serving Boone County.”

Each nonprofit will have a table explaining its mission and job descriptions for volunteers and board members.

“They will be interacting with guests and describing their need for volunteers,” Perdue said. “It’s a great way for the nonprofits to engage right there with the people who might be volunteering.”

Because of its proximity to Marion County, many volunteers choose to donate time and money there instead of Boone County.

“Part of our mission is to act as a catalyst for the nonprofits right here in the county.

One of the things we’ve heard is that they struggle in finding quality volunteers,” Perdue said. “One thing we really wanted to make sure our county residents knew is that there are a ton of ways they can volunteer in the county in which they live.”

The event will include door prizes and food trucks.

“It’s a very fun, casual event,” Perdue said. “You can come and grab dinner and walk through the booths.”

Couple to share ghost stories

By Heather Lusk news@currentzionsville.com Nicole Kobrowski’s interest in the paranormal began early.

“I grew up in a haunted library house,” she said.

After encounters with ghosts and unusual experiences as a child, she sought books about the paranormal and found none, so as an adult she wrote her own.

Kobrowski and her husband, Michael, will share stories of haunted buildings in Indiana at the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library Sept. 26. The couple also will discuss their recent visit to Lizzie Borden’s house in Massachusetts and other notable haunts around the U.S..

As an author, Kobrowski combines her love for history and hauntings through books with topics like the Central Indiana Hospital and Helene Knabe, a murdered doctor whom Kobrowski continues to encounter in spiritual form throughout the city.

The couple lives in Westfield and leads ghost tours around Central Indiana haunts based on history and personal encounters.

“We’ve been on so many different ghost

tours in the U.S. and abroad, and we gravitate toward those smaller mom-and-pop companies,” she said. “You get a more personalized experience, and the people are usually local, and they know the history and they know the places.”

Kobrowski’s company, Unseen Press, also teaches classes on how to research ghosts haunting someone’s property.

Registration for The Ghosts We’ve Met is required and may be made through the library website, zionsvillelibrary.org. Because of the nature of the program, no one under the age of 10 will be admitted.

Terrorism and hurricanes Commentary by Ward Degler I was so busy saying prayers and using my best body English to protect everyone in Florida under siege plain talk from Hurricane Irma last week that I forgot about 9/11. For 15 years, the 11th of September has turned my blood cold as I relived the horror of that attack.

This year, it was a different threat.

Mother Nature first took aim at Houston and then at Florida. The devastation to both defied comprehension. Tens of thousands of homes destroyed in Texas. Not a square inch of Florida escaped wind and flood.

There was a difference, of course, between the ravages of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, and the attacks of 9/11. Nature can be understood and forgiven. Acts of terrorism warrant neither understanding nor compassion.

Sixteen years ago, the phone rang and my daughter was on the line, crying. Planes had flown into the twin towers of the World Trade Center. The live images on TV were horrifying.

For me, it was bad enough to witness the devastation. Worse was the echo of

another attack years earlier when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.

We didn’t have television back then, of course, but the words coming across the radio were just as chilling. Later, we listened as President Roosevelt addressed the American people and announced that our nation was at war with Japan.

I slept poorly that night, keeping vigil at my bedroom window, expecting enemy soldiers to come marching down the road before dawn. We were suddenly at war.

And then it happened again on 9/11. We were attacked. We were at war, and life would never be the same.

Nearly 3,000 lives evaporated when the twin towers came down. A memorial marks the place it happened at Ground Zero in New York. Visitors quietly file by the place every day. The city has rebuilt, but the date will never be forgotten.

Texas and Florida will rebuild, too. And in time, Mother Nature will be forgiven.

Z ion s ville woman advocates for families transitioning into as sis ted living

When Cindy Ramsey was faced with moving her parents into an assisted living facility, she wasn’t sure where to turn. cover story “We talked to a lot of our friends in the same boat, and the key is how you get started with something like this,” she said.

She and her husband, Don Ramsey, who live in Carmel, met with an elder law attorney who suggested they contact Lona Newton to help guide them through the process. Newton, a Zionsville resident, spent several years in sales and marketing for senior living communities until she saw the need to advocate for families searching for assisted living.

“People would walk into my office and be overwhelmed,” Newton said. “They had to place their loved one and just didn’t know what to do or where to go.”

Two years ago, Newton started her own company, Senior Living Advisor, to provide guidance and help families make the best decisions for loved ones.

Although most of her business is in Carmel because of the high number of senior living options, she researches facilities all around Indianapolis based on her clients’ needs.

Newton creates a matrix of three living options based on financial and medical needs, along with community specifics like proximity. Having been on the inside, she knows what questions to ask each facility. She then assists with paperwork and can help organize the move.

Knowing the networks, medical payment options, state

Family: Husband, David, an entrepreneur, and two adult children living in Ohio and Illinois Favorite hobby: Gardening Favorite vacation spot: Cabo San Lucas Favorite local restaurant: Cobblestone Favorite book: The Bible Favorite movie: “Gone with the Wind” regulations, financial situations and how to negotiate with facilities are critical before making a selection.

Ramsey moved her parents more than a year ago to a location that “had everything we were looking for,” she said. Then the facility changed the way they accepted Medicaid at about the same time her parents required additional medical care.

So the Ramseys reached out to Newton again, who found a new option.

“Our No. 1 goal was to keep (Cindy’s) mother and father together,” Don Ramsey said. “A lot people think about how nice the facility looks, but to be honest the amount of care and love they get far exceeds the surroundings they’re in. If they have loving staff that really care about the elderly, it makes a difference.”

Because those 85 and older are one of the fastestgrowing population groups, elder care needs are expected to continue to rise. In 2012, there were an estimated 5.9 million people older than 85 in the U.S. The total is

expected to increase to 19.4 million by 2050, according to the CDC. Part of the increase is because of the aging of the baby boomer population. By 2030, approximately 1 in 5 people will be older than 65, which is expected to create a temporary demand for a multitude of elder-care options.

Newton said time constraints usually prevent family members from conducting the research required to make the best decisions for their loved ones.

“You have to know what you’re looking for, and you have to know the fit,” she said.

Cindy Ramsey struggled to find a new home for her parents but said that Newton was a voice of reason, advising her the time was right.

“We were trying to do as much as possible to keep them in their home,” she said. “There’s an emotional factor of wanting to try to protect them. (Newton) helped me get over the emotional barrier of making the change. She was instrumental in doing what was right for the family.”

In her spare time, Newton focuses on the opposite end of life by serving as a child advocate in Marion County. She has two siblings in her care, making sure their needs are met through the legal, foster care and educational systems.

“It has to do with a calling I’ve had and being able to help in another area that I’m interested in,” she said.

Newton’s college degree is in early childhood education, but she said she was moved to help seniors.

“They have a heart of gratefulness and appreciation for what you can do for them,” she said.

Something to chew on

o b se r v a tion

Left behind

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker No one is left behind! When in combat, the compact demands that we mutually promise to bring back each of our own comrades to safety at battle’s end. It raises the conception that every fellow warrior is worthy of our commitment to their rescue if captured or to our compassion if wounded. Likewise, we can rest in the security of their care should we fall victim.

It is a concept with which we all have familiarity but is difficult to determine its origin. Some attribute it to pre-independence American soldiers fighting in the French and Indian War, Roger’s Rangers.

Others imagine an earlier ethos behind the idea. Regardless of etymology, the notion persists because it is honorable and well-conceived.

As we march into the foibles of life, we can feel abandoned by those pledged to stand with us. And too often, we can fail to live to our own promise. Mundane interests, timing, fear, or even ordinary distraction can draw us away from those we are sworn to defend. Are we living to our commitments to our faith? To our families?

Have we left behind those who would be there for us? Have we been left behind?

When voices cry out for attention, they are difficult to ignore. But those voices fade quickly from distance, fatigue or other distraction. Soon, we can forget they are there, still hoping for remembrance and longing for our devotion. Other matters arise as we justify our failure to meet our sworn obligations. Can we ever fully hope to absolve ourselves of a duty to those we have called comrades? If so, when is the mission complete and the contract fulfilled?

Whatever happened to good manners?

Editor, Danielle Wilson’s recent column (Sept.

5) is the definition of insufferable. I began to read it expecting a grammar lesson. She begins by saying she is bringing the term back, yet it was never gone.

Then, she went on to a light-hearted commentary about her girls. She ended by crudely insulting our president. Those of us who lived through eight years of selfrestrained criticism of Obama policies for

fear of being labeled racists are now enduring unrestrained, holier-than-though comments by the self-adjudged smarter people on the left. I shudder to imagine the wrath that would have descended upon anybody who might have called the previous administration a poop show.

Whatever happened to good manners?

Tom Branum, Sr. Noblesville

I have a problem. Well, yes, technically, I have many. But I want to focus on one that has become a source of eyehumor rolling around our house. It’s called misophonia, which basically means that people chewing their food drives me bat-poo crazy.

And no, I’m not making this “disorder” up.

There are multiple articles on the internet about the condition, apparently suffered by thousands around the world. Doo chowing down on a turkey sandwich with pickles and crispy lettuce, one of my daughters methodically eating a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Mamaw partaking of an apple and spinach salad are the stuff of nightmares for me. If I’m tired or stressed out, or having a bad day, I literally cannot stand to be around even my loved ones while they are eating.

Sometimes it’s so bad I make awful comments, though I usually do try to invent an excuse for leaving the room before it comes to that. After all, it’s not their fault they are loud eaters or that I have hyper-sensitive hearing, or that their mealtimes are corresponding with one of my I-don’t-like-any-ofyou moments. Luckily, my family has grown somewhat accustomed to these “flare-ups” and rarely pay me any attention. In fact, I’m fairly certain they play the “How Agitated Can We Make Mom?” game during dinner.

So don’t feel too sorry for them. They’ve learned a few coping mechanisms, as have I, and we’re all optimistic that my hearing will soon follow the way of my declining eyesight. Until then, we’ll muddle through the misery of misophonia together. Just not over a bowl of popcorn.

Peace out.

Frank talk about hot dogs Commentary by Dick Wolfsie When Eugene Warrington died at the age of 95 last week, hundreds of people laid flowers at his site. Not the site humor of his grave, but of his grill, the home of the greatest hot dog money can buy, just minutes from my childhood home in New Rochelle, N.Y. When I was young, it didn’t take much money: two dogs for a quarter and a watery orangeade for another dime. The line at Walter’s Hot Dog Stand began forming at 10 a.m. in front of the food stand, inexplicably a Chinese pagoda. While waiting, customers could read postcards affixed to the outside of the building from locals traveling abroad who missed their Walter’s fix.

The coveted fare was simply a dog, a bun and some mustard. Each hot dog was butterflied with a small knife so two sides of the meat could sizzle on the well-oiled surface. The buns were carefully laid out on another grill, which was lightly drizzled with butter. You had two choices for toppings: mustard or extra mustard.

Each order was wrapped in tissue paper, the last inch of bun and meat peeking out.

Those slathered with extra mustard were

completely enclosed, making them more easily identified and preventing the inevitable ooze before the first bite. I had my share of stained shirts, a badge of honor for all Walter’s aficionados. The mustard, by the way, was a secret recipe. Everyone knew there was a hint of relish, but that was the only hint you got. You can buy the mustard online. I looked at the ingredients.

There’s something they’re not telling us.

All you could get at Walter’s for decades was a hot dog and a drink. In the 1990s, they added fries.

When I am back in my hometown, I run into old high school classmates who either still live in the area or, like me, make their pilgrimage to the pagoda, a must-eat stop on every return trip. The building still looks exactly the same, almost frozen in time.

Which reminds me: They sell ice cream now, another diversion from the original concept. And another source of disgruntlement from grouchy old frank-o-philes like me.

Back-to-school backpack safety Commentary by Tiffany Thacker What concerns do you have when kids carry heavy backpacks? Heavy backpacks strain the muscles in the back, neck, shoulders, spine joints and rib kids cage. Heavy weight bearing on a young person’s back can distort the natural curves in the back and lead to rounding of the shoulders.

What are signs a child is injuring his/ her back? Signs of injury include constant pain, leg pain with numbness or weakness, or if pain causes your child to wake up while sleeping. If your child experiences any of these symptoms, even if it’s just for a few weeks, it’s important to make an appointment with his/her primary care physician.

What can parents do to prevent their children from back problems caused by heavy backpacks? There are several things

parents can do to protect their child’s back: • Use your home scale to weigh your child’s backpack. The backpack should not be more than 10 percent of their body weight.

• Pick a backpack that fits your child.

It should not rest any lower than the small of their lower back. If it hangs too far down, it will increase your child’s lower back pain and risk of falling.

• The shoulder straps should be wide and cushioned to help distribute the weight. A strap that goes across their hips will also help with proper distribution of weight.

• Make sure your child uses both straps and doesn’t sling it over one shoulder.

Holding a backpack on one shoulder causes excessive strain and throws off proper body alignment.

• Distribute the weight of the backpack so the heavier items are resting closer to the child’s back.

Tiffany Thacker is a nurse practitioner and program coordinator of The Spine Program at IU Health North Hospital.

Zionsville chamber welcomes Donnelly

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com In 2015, Indiana Sen. Joe Donnelly was ranked as the second-most bipartisan senator in 2015 by The Lugar Politics Center.

“Sen. Susan Collins (Republican from Maine) constantly reminds me she was first,” said Donnelly, a Democrat.

Donnelly’s willingness to cross party lines was likely a factor in earning a 2017 Spirit of Enterprise Award from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in recognition of his support for economic growth for Indiana workers and businesses. Donnelly was presented the award at the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce luncheon Sept. 11 at the Lids headquarters in Zionsville. Donnelly addressed a number of issues and took questions from the audience. Zionsville Community High School teacher Dave Rodgers served as moderator.

Donnelly was asked about President Donald Trump’s actions to cut back many regulations on business.

“We have a lot of regulations that are good and a lot that are overbearing, so you try to look at them and say what actually makes sense and contributes to success,”

Zionsville Community High School teacher Dave Rodgers, left, serves as moderator for questions and answers with Sen. Joe Donnelly. (Photo by Mark Ambrogi)

Donnelly said. “We protect those things precious to us in a common sense way while making life for small business as simple as possible.”

One of the biggest issues Indiana and the nation faces is dealing with the opioid

crisis, Donnelly said.

“The Boone County Sheriff (Mike Nielsen) is a good friend of mine,” Donnelly said.

“He’s a wonderful man. He told me, ‘Joe, 90 percent of my jail problems, 90 percent of my on-the-street problems, 90 percent of everything that causes trouble in Boone County is related to heroin or opioids.”

Donnelly said a concern now is stopping shipments of fentanyl, a powerful opioid pain medication, from China.

“They’re coming in unmarked packages.

The sniffer dogs, if the dog gets it in their mucus, it kills them,” Donnelly said. “Everybody’s all in. The goal is to cut it off at the start.”

Donnelly is a member of the Armed Forces Committee and the ranking Democrat on the Strategic Forces Subcommittee, which deals with North Korea, missile defense and nuclear weapons.

“It’s a big challenge we have in front of us, because it’s hard to come to rational decisions and conclusions with a leader in North Korea who struggles with his rational decision-making,” Donnelly said. “We look at it and it makes no sense to us, but in his world view and what he’s dealing with, it does.”

Penrod Arts Festival Susie Jackson (Zionsville), Jeanne Tarshes ( Carmel) and Beth Passwater (Carmel) attend the 51st annual Penrod Arts Festival at the Indianapolis Museum of Art Sept. 9. Area residents and organizations attended, volunteered and had booths selling their beautiful one-of-a kind pieces of art.

Art lovers from all over came to enjoy handmade art, live dance performances and delicious food and spirits from our local restaurants. This is one of my favorite events because I always run into friends who come out to support our arts communities and nonprofit organizations every year. It’s a great way to pay it forward.

Inside south gateway of Akbar’s tomb. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Tomb of Akbar the Great Commentary by Don Knebel Akbar the Great was, as his name suggests, the greatest of the Mughal emperors, ruling a large portion of travel what is now India from 1556 until his death in 1605. Revered both for his military successes and his religious tolerance, Akbar is honored by a magnificent tomb complex near Agra.

Akbar began construction of his own tomb in Sikandra, 5 miles from Agra, an important imperial city. After Akbar’s death, Jahangir, his son and successor, continued the work, completing it in 1613. Akbar’s tomb is located in the center section of a four-story tiered pyramid, more than 300 feet long on each side, lying at the center of a square garden. The garden surrounding the pyramid is divided into four equal quadrants by water channels, symbolizing the four rivers of the Garden of Eden, which Muslims identify with paradise. The walls of the tomb area are covered with intricate floral and arabesque carvings, along with 99 names for Allah. An inscription over the tomb entrance reads: “These are

the Gardens of Eden: enter them to dwell eternally.”

The 120-acre garden is enclosed by red sandstone walls, each nearly a half-mile long, with a gateway at the midpoint of each wall. The gateway on the southern wall is the most photographed structure in the entire complex, with an enormous central archway and 20 panels inlaid with white marble, black slate and colored stones. The southern gateway was inspired by the Buland Darwaza, a gateway built by Akbar at Fatehpur Sikri, his capital at the time, to celebrate a military victory. Shah Jahan, Akbar’s grandson, copied the four minarets at the corners of the southern gateway in his design of the nearby Taj Mahal.

When you visit the Taj Mahal, take a short side trip to Akbar’s tomb. You will be glad you did.

I’ll have the crow Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt “In your recent article, ‘Who do you think you are?’ you state, ‘Additionally, authors like Shakespeare, grammar guy Chaucer, and books like the King James Bible often utilized that to refer to a person.’ Because you were referring to specific people and a specific book, shouldn’t you have used the words ‘such as’ instead of ‘like’ in your sentence?” –Becky, Carmel Becky, you’re absolutely right! You outgrammared the Grammar Guy. Here’s the rule: “Such as” indicates inclusion, while “like” suggests comparison. Take this example: Curtis has visited states such as Rhode Island, Idaho and North Dakota. The “such as” in this sentence indicates Rhode Island, Idaho and North Dakota are included in the states Curtis has visited.

How about this: Curtis enjoys limitededition treats like the McRib. The “like” in this sentence suggests there are other, comparable limited edition treats Curtis enjoys in addition to the McRib. Take, for example, the pumpkin spice latte or Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. Although I realize their scarcity adds to their allure, these items

are the closest thing to perfection you can get for less than four bucks.

Here’s the McRub: Not everyone agrees.

Although I prefer clear-cut answers, I’m not finding many in the nuanced English grammar universe. Some linguists think “such as” sounds too formal to our casual eardrums. In our rapidly devolving spelling and grammar multiverse in which we find ourselves, I tip my cap to those whose prose is elegant and purposeful.

If your intentions are to use grammar to be snooty, then I object (like when Starbucks changes its seasonal menu from pumpkin to peppermint). On the other hand, if you’ve got it, flaunt it (like if you ingeniously chose to save a pack of Reese’s Eggs in the vegetable drawer of your refrigerator for six months, you deserve to enjoy them in January).

Although this issue seems to involve a minor, hair-splitting distinction, you’ve got to love good grammar; after all, it’s only available in limited quantities.
