Letters to the Editor

By Janet and Charley Hoult. A Note to our friends: These greetings are usually sent to you prior to Christmas. Some of you have called because you didn't receive them, and you were concerned....thanks to you all. Both of us had our yearly flu shots on the 19th, and Charley became sick a few days later...

By Carlene Brown, MA. Ed. Alan Corlin asserts that the outcome of the Culver City Democratic Club’s endorsement process should “be an affirmation of who the club believes will best represent the interests of Democrats in Culver City.” Mr. Corlin suggests that the club does not fully value all of its members, but only a few.

Do not want to deflate your bubble, but your reasoning is flawed about last month’s School Board election. Do not feel badly. Politics in Culver City is not unlike most small, unsophisticated cities.
