Dear Editor:

RE: “Hysteria on steroids”? (Aug. 11).

Whenever the editor is compelled to weigh in with a “note” dispelling a writer’s opinion, it’s always a red flag for me.

Perhaps the editor could provide us with the source of his information, as Jane Vandervliet has with hers, and leave us, the discerning public, to check both sides and apply our own critical thinking skills.
