Editor:

My, aren’t we blessed to live where a Master Chorale concert of such magnitude can joyfully happen … where people such as Buzz Holmes, the Marshall Hawkins Sextet, John Fleming, Ed Hansen and Sherry Williams can inspire us … where our own Idyllwild Community Fund can choose to fund a wonderful adaptation of a familiar Christmas melody … all to give us a measure of peace and hope in our chaotic world. We very much appreciate you all.

For example: 1) see Santa arrive, 2) sing a few uplifting Christmas/Hanukkah songs (such as “Jingle Bells,” Rudolph, Dreidel), and…

A free concert on a beautiful Sunday night — now, that’s a party! As a retailer, I’ve seen a lot of “still life” Septembers on this mountain. But organizers kept the tourists, as well as the locals, entertained on a normally docile Sunday evening. Casey was a perfect “local boy makes good” with his talent…

Editor: It’s absurd and fear- mongering to say, as was stated, new fire-abatement laws could have prevented the last fire. I’m sick and tired of false and misleading statements. That’s as outrageous a statement as saying our firefighters helped cause the last big fire by not following existing abatement law. The cause was electrical sparks…

Editor: The championship sporting events listed have changed over the decades. The 1903 World Series had eight games. Before the Super Bowl, there were championship games between the AFL and NFL. The number of teams has increased, the number of games has changed. Adding wild card teams and playoff games has made the events what…

Not so! I just recieved my Southern California Edison (SCE) bill dated Nov. 12, 2011, for service through Nov. 8. From Oct. 6 through Oct. 28 (22 days) I used 450 kWh (I have 23 photovoltaic panels, however that’s another story), which is an average use of 20.45 kWh per day, as recorded by my…
