Our local paper, The Racine Journal Times, actually had a front-page article on the Freedom From Religion Foundation complete with color photo of Anne and Annie Laurie Gaylor.

While the article was not totally balanced it wasn't totally hostile either. FRONT-PAGE !!!.

I have submitted a letter of rebuttal to the hostile or un-balanced parts.

Excellent.

The online version of the Racine Journal Times only has yesterday's news. I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to read the article.

I actually live only about four blocks or so from the FFRF offices, though I've never been there. Is there much actually there to see?

Maybe not all that much to see but why not stop by and get acquainted?

If you ever find yourself in Racine with an hour or so to spare call me. I buy lunch for out of towners. 554-8092.

Well, I drive down to Chicago every once in a while and usually go by Milwaukee, so I guess I pass Racine semi-often. I guess I could stop for a lunch break some time.

What does "unbalanced" mean?

I faxed a copy to the FFRF office. You could stop by and read it there. I don't know why it didn't show up in the on-line edition.
