List of Past Articles

Below are the titles of the columns I have written since 2007 for the Journal Opinion.  They are all posted on this blog.  If there is one you want to read, go to the search bloc on the right side of page one and put in key word(s).  The article should appear on the top of the second page.  I have just finished throwing away 5 lg boxes of hand written notes and kept just the newspaper copy and one hard copy. Notice that 13 of the articles were reprinted in the Valley News, most of which had great illustrations by Shawn Braley.
