No 'we' in this 'I'

                  - Bob Currall, Upcountry Community Council co-chair


                  I wish to address the latest article about Sherry Curtis 
                  statements (Jan. 23, "Authorities say child's alleged death 
                  near school never happened"). Sherry has taken on being head 
                  of the Upcountry Community Council Highway 88 Safety 
                  Committee. This UCC committee listens to concerns from 
                  upcountry residents about safety along this stretch of highway 
                  and presents those to the appropriate authorities that might 
                  be able to help in solving them. In her recent TV interview 
                  and the following article written by Scott Anderson, I have to 
                  say that some of her feelings expressed were not the position 
                  of the Upcountry Community Council, especially those 
                  concerning Mr. Bowman's development and the alleged death of a 
                  student attending school in Pine Grove. Sometimes a person's 
                  personal views get presented as "we" instead of "I." This note 
                  is just to set the record straight.
