Letter to the Editor
Dear editor and Weathington To the Editor: As I read my paper copy of the TDB today, March 30, 2011, I was so happy to see some “tweets” from Birdland. Though I don’t know Don W. personally, I feel I have shared some of his life’s knowledge and appreciate him sharing it with our community. Keep writing, Mr. W., we need your calm and collected perspective. Thanks, –– Carolyn Ashburn
