...Both Ms. Simon's recent article, "Disobedience a la Thoreau: The Case of Gus Yates," and the letter published March 6 entitled "Selfishness," miss the point of Gus Yates' recent ascent of Mt. Katahdin. Mr. Yates did not set out to endanger the life of anyone. In fact, on my many outdoor trips with Mr. Yates I have been extremely impressed with his concern for the safety of the trip members and the preservation of the environment.

I have repeatedly spoken out against the denial of counsel to Ms. Little and others. Mr. Kunstler also neglected to mention that I participated in the preparation of the brief in Kunstler's own appeal to the Seventh Circuit from his contempt conviction growing out of the "Chicago Seven" trial. He also knows that I have spoken out in behalf of the "Wilmington Ten," participated in the defense...
