		<description>Ah, Chadly! Another masterpiece. I think the wrapped pens and circus peanuts put things over the top.

Love you, Bruno! It certainly won't be the same place without you &#38; Jakey.

		<description>I agree with Mr. Dunn.
Any opinion that's worthwhile should be worth including a name and an address.
Any potshot can make accusations or allegations toward anyone, if they are allowed to do it under the cover of being anonymous.  
If we agree, or disagree with Louise Miller, the lady at least has the courage and conviction to say what she believes.  Those that write the nicey nice things show little imagination and even less commitment to whatever topic they address publicly.  In my opinion, they do nothing to benefit the community. 
I would be more than happy to submit an Opinion piece every 2 weeks regarding the incompetence, stubborness and lack of accountability these current Council members exhibit.
As a life long resident of G.I., I've yet to witness the type of ineptness displayed by this current group of elected officials.
Lastly, if you choose to blast someone or a group of people, at least have the courage to include your name and address, otherwise, all your energy is lost because no reputable newspaper is going to allow that type of format.</description>

		<description>I can't get registered through your website.  The address provided to me wasn't working.  This is frustrating, this happened to me the last time you guys changed your policy.  Makes me want to go elsewhere for my news and to be able to post my opinion.</description>

		<description>I have been trying to register but never recieve the needed url to my email address.

And haven't we been through this before?  Making people "register" is just a way of limiting free speech.

Are you trying to lower your website contacts?  People will be going back to the Lincoln Journal Star.  No registration required there.</description>

		<description>Text size adjustments - Extended

In your browser menu clicking VIEW - TEXT SIZE - gives the options. A much quicker way of adjusting this is via the keyboard with CTRL and + (plus). The website does a fantastic job of not breaking layout when you do this and mantains usability and readability. If by some chance you go to large CTRL and - (minus). To quickly get back to normal CTRL and 0 (zero) will do the trick.</description>
