p> THIRD TIME'S A CHARM br> Re: William H. Stewart's letter (" TAS 's Strong Bench") in Reader Mail's Taking Back the Night : /p>

This is the third time I've written to praise your "audience" and its observations; often I learn more from the letters to the editor than in many of the columns.

You received a kind of "fan letter" just last week -- well deserved. It really hits home when I read what numb nuts write to the Seattle Times (like Bill Gates' goofy father) or the Atlanta rag and other so-called "mainstream" publications; the socialistic/give-me-more opinions are rarely worth more than puke.

Sorry 'bout that, but really, I'm often amazed at the eloquence and sharp thinking of your patrons -- which most often can be traced back to your original writings which inspire such fertile extensions of thought.

As a non-card-carrying guy of the libertarian persuasion, I have major problems with the administration and most of our elected representatives, but your readership gives me hope. I certainly don't agree with all of your participants -- in fact, some go 'way too far. But, they're thinking! And most are positive, constructive thoughts.
