In the June 22 edition of Highlands Today there is a letter best described as a diatribe submitted by Jerry Nargelovic. The writer should take time to learn the facts before writing such balderdash and he needs to learn that we cannot become isolated from the rest of the world. Global is the word today and not isolation. Incidentally, even the letter heading is incorrect. ...more
