With the exception possibly

of The Citizen, which has a professional appearance, contains worthwhile

local news, and a touch of humor courtesy of Billy Murphy, the others

are nothing but repetitious drivel with some paranoid rantings thrown

in for good measure.

I realize many people won't

share my opinion about the newspapers I'm referring to, but am I the only

person in the county who's annoyed that I get papers I haven't subscribed

to and don't want? Doesn't it bother anyone else that we don't have a

choice in the matter?

Mrs. Dana Cox

Peachtree City

[The publisher replies:

We are sorry Mrs. Cox feels that way about local newspapers. Here at The

Citizen we maintain a computerized list of people and addresses that don't

want our papers thrown. We also maintain a "temporary stop"

list for those who want the paper but leave home on vacation or for extended

periods of time. We invite those interested in this to call us at 770-719-1880

during normal business hours weekdays. Our "stop" system depends

on independent contractor carriers and is not perfect. We occasionally

make mistakes. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We do

try not to wear out our welcome. Cal Beverly.]
