Letters to the Editor 10-28-1997

- KLVA - Line-Item Veto - Winona Meeting - Misinformation KLVA Editor, Times-Union: Kosciusko Literacy Volunteers of America (KLVA) recently completed a tutor training workshop in conjunction with the Alternative Learning Center's volunteer coordinator, Donna Bower.It was a surprise to me at the workshop to hear one of our trainees say, "I didn't even know this place was here." I've been wondering since then how many other people who live in our community do not know the Alternative Learning Center exists, and therefore, most certainly do not know what happens there.

John Glenn Shows That Age Doesn't Preclude Adventure

U.S.Senator and American astronaut John Glenn's return trip to outer space Thursday can serve as a reminder to us all.That reminder is that no matter how old we get, we can still reach the stars. Glenn is 77 and returned to outer space Thursday 36 years after his first trip. Glenn last went into space before Nixon's resignation, before the end of the Vietnam War and before many high school students and college students today were born. In our trendy, pop-culture, fast food, channel-surfing times, we sometimes forget that we are all aging.There is no fountain of youth where we can remain forever young, even though cosmetic companies would have you believe otherwise.The phrase, "It won't happen to me!" doesn't apply here. The human body ages, for all people.I'll get old, you'll get old, and that one person you had a crush on back in high school will get old.It's the way it works.
