Rule of Law in not in the Constitution for a reason
Dear Editor, In my last letter I gave you the reasons why the due process of law clause found in the fifth amendment to the U.S. Constitution refers to the law that was in effect when the amendment was written by our founders. The purpose of this letter is to point out that the due […]
Lovin comic Carl!
Dear Editor, Just a short note regarding the disappearance of the paper’s comic section. A newspaper is not really complete without something to make you laugh. But then I realized that we don’t really need a comic section, as we have Carl. He’s not only funny but also quite informational. Keep it coming Carl. Len […]
I quit! Safety and sanity no-longer worth it.
DEAR EDITOR, Don’t know exactly how to say this but – I quit. Writing THE OUTDOORS column these past five years has been fun, and I love sharing about critters and the outdoors.

YCN is food for thought
Dear Editor, So many comments to make about your fish wrapper.
Things are definitely different in California
Dear Editor, Recently I was contacted by the State Bar of California. I was asked to update my personal information and my present contact information. I noticed that there were five choices that I had to describe my sex. Thank God two of the choices were still male and female. One choice I believe was […]
Politics and Outdoors: an unfitting mix
Dear Editor, I just read Carl Wolf’s rather undisciplined statements about people he disagrees with and your response (and then his). I’m still confused how an outdoor columnist thinks his column is a political column. “The snow fell, the deer season is here…and I think Trump is a bad guy and anyone who voted for […]
Loving the YCN’s tribute to Jim Knapp
