Let’s see if the D publishes this:
To the Editor:
In response to Adil W. Ahmad’s letter of October 16th (“Expand the Definition”), I wish to point out that Mr. Ahmad’s letter, by not mentioning violence against women, bias in the media, and the theft of license plates (which I understand to be a problem on campus), not only condones these very activities, but encourages and invites their practice.
Right?

Men could know the workings of a city before they became too obsessed with the water works. They could locate themselves on earth before looking to the stars. A world that is round that can’t be confirmed without science instruments is a bit primitive, which is so many scientific servants and minions. Relating vertical car manufacturing in California to more horizontal car manufacturing in Ohio in a region, implies latitude. A man surmises the curvature of the earth by locating a city, Hartford, on the map, surveying the extent of the area but also it’s institutions and business and then relating it to other cities like Washington D.C., implies latitude. It could mean locating the south, Europe, one or two american cities on the map. It’s very simple and basic that people could locate themselves on the earth.
