Editor,

For 2021, the Daily Journal should resolve to publish less misinformation. Columnist Matt Grocott can’t do simple math, and apparently the Daily Journal can’t proofread. If I want to read poorly thought through opinion pieces, I can read The Wall Street Journal. The Daily Journal should hold itself to a higher standard.

Chuck, bet you feel better after getting that rant out. Reading things that go against your narrative and ideology seems to really upset you. There are always the Funnies in the back of many newspapers that are probably more your speed and less controversial for a sensitive person like yourself.

Sounds to me, Mr. Simmons, you should go read The Wall Street Journal. I don’t think you’d be missed from the DJ. One can take the same approach as you and complain that the DJ should hold itself to a higher standard and not publish your letter. But obviously, you hold the DJ to a higher standard because you keep submitting letters to be published.

I could be wrong but it appears any published point of view that does not conform to your personal opinion falls into what your describe as "poorly thought through opinion pieces." N'est-ce pas?

Breathe deep... OK

I couldn't find a video that I thought would be a good fit for tonight. So, about five minutes before midnight... watch Chris Botti, pop a bottle of bubbly then start "Auld :Lang Syne." It should be 2021... Happy New Year!
