I hate to be reminded of the loss of the VIBRANT newspaper the REgister used

to be. I hate to be reminded of the loss of the opinion page, because that is

exactly how I have felt...like it" lost its soul." Yes I still subscribe and read it

but it is like watching someone with Alzheimer's slowly but steadily lose their

capacity to think and reason.

Thanks Robert Leonard for withdrawing the curtain, standing behind the camera and securing a front row seat.

After stumbling for a few years, the Register now has a top notch software program for their eEdition, enabling access on desktops, laptops and smart phones from anywhere in the world. Peruse the whole paper in your PJs before 0600h; pick your own articles and save trees.

Good point. I often look online. However, I must enjoy the relative heft of the Sunday paper.

I worry about this in my coverage of higher education. It’s easier to believe that nothing is new under the sun and that hard truths are just sour grapes. I suppose we evolved to tune out whenever the alarms are too shrill for too long. It take discipline to keep listening and weighing evidence, especially when the evidence suggests a crisis.

Thanks for informing us about "Reliable Sources." I wondered what had happened. I agree with you about the DSM Register...I also read it every day.
