to concerns in our state. Going forward, how about if you see a story in your local Oregon paper or blog or.. and send me the link (very important, the link)? Try to keep it newsworthy. I will then turn around and add it to subsequent Land Use editions, if
it meets my standards for newsworthiness or humor, or both. My e-mail address is at the bottom of this document.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
