people aware of reality

“Lynch isn't getting picture with all his rantings.” So says Bill Hawver of Cortland. He fails to mention what “rantings” he's talking about. And that leads me to believe he doesn't want to pinpoint these “ravings.”

They're pure unadulterated facts. And why, Mr. Hawver, all the way from Cortland, like Matthew Whiting from Weedsport, refuses to submit any factual information when criticizing my letters leads me to believe they, for whatever reasons, don't want to deal with reality.

“Time to hang up my hangups,” Bill Hawver says. I fail to see where writing about realities are hangups. I also fail to see, Mr. Hawver, why you have a problem reading about realities.

Let's discuss some of these realities I write about. I write about what God expects from us. Since I do that quite frequently, I assume you have a problem with that?

Why? I don't know. But you obviously have and you obviously consider that my writing about God is a hangup of mine. I'd say God deserves to be heard.

Another one of my favorite topics is writing about bad drivers. Just like all the other topics I have written about for years, bad drivers just don't stop driving bad!

Take tailgating for instance. Everyone on the highway is usually only a car length away from a vehicle ahead. Not very bright of anyone to assume one car might suddenly have to stop because of a deer crossing.

If the driver about to hit the deer puts on the brakes, there's absolutely no way vehicles in back can stop. The end result is a massive pileup of bad drivers reaping what they have sowed. And for what? To get to their destinations a few minutes early. They won't be getting there at all now.

If trying to make people aware of reality is a hangup, I guess I'm guilty of that.
