Very few of us left to talk to. Same news from Ed Reich, who is enjoying life in Florida. Irv Sager is worried about losing his memory. I don’t have that problem, as I have forgotten what I can’t remember. I am starting a new project that I think you will all enjoy: I have copies of observations made by my almost 100 classmates who were alive in 1990.


Harry Ackerman comments that he is very concerned about the continued rise of street crime in this country as well as the widespread lack of ethics in business and in government. He supports organizations such as Common Cause. He is politically oriented toward the Democrats, and greatly fears former President Bush is going to prove to be a too-little, too-late president.


Phillip Allen has fears that we are becoming a service country and the light and heavy industries are overseas. Sound familiar?


Future columns will have more comments from other classmates.
