Other view: What about apartment dwellers?
Submitted by Lawrence J. McQuillan, Ph.D, Andrew M. Gloger on 6.11.2004

There is a device capable of reducing water bills for millions of California renters and conserving water. Too bad it's not available in the state, even though a stroke of a pen would make it happen.

Remembering Ronald Reagan
Submitted by Lance T. Izumi, J.D. on 6.8.2004

As America mourns the passing of Ronald Reagan, I feel an intense sense of personal loss. Many people will remember our nation’s 40th president as a great leader and the Great Communicator.

Such is the case with the agreement to reform California's workers' compensation system, embodied in SB 899. It holds great promise for employees and employers, but its administration is crucial. Fortunately, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger understands this.

Reagan was forever shaped by his environment
Submitted by George E. Condon Jr. on 6.5.2004

Even when he was hobnobbing with the glitterati in Hollywood, negotiating with Soviet leaders in the Kremlin or traversing the corridors of power in Washington, there always was something about Ronald Wilson Reagan that never strayed too far from Dixon, Ill.
