...think your writer Steve Lopez would think the concept of a drive-through strip joint was so funny if it was in his neighborhood [STEVE LOPEZ'S AMERICA, Oct. 2]! There are already two nude dance clubs in Salem Township. How many do you need in a community of 7,500 people? I can't believe the owner of the Climax Gentleman's Club believes he is in the "entertainment business." P.T. Barnum would turn over in his grave to have his name mentioned in connection with this article. LINDA FREY Apollo...

This is entirely false; we very much desire such events and have been in continued coordination with Hillel's Interethnic Committee with this goal...
...ghost of a four-term New York governor and failed presidential candidate named Al Smith turned out Thursday night to be the best debate moderator we've seen yet. George W. Bush and Al Gore, together on stage in Manhattan. For a fund-raiser - a uniquely joint, bipartisan fund-raiser, no less - that raised $900,000 for health care programs in New York. No issues, no attacks, no fuzzy math or see-how-much-I-know policy litanies. Just one-liners, one-liners, one-liners. Youngman for President...
