You appear unfamiliar with this column and its tone. Funny, for a preson who was "in the newspaper business" for 40 years (which could mean running a press, or emptying waste baskets, I suppose), you didn't get any background before offering your comment.

Will send over coupons for 1/2-off chill pills. You may need to start buying them in bulk.

Guestsquared:  It's really too bad you can't manage to discuss an issue without inserting one or more personal insults.  Again, may I suggest disagreeing with you on this issue or any other does make a person, ipso facto, "ill-informed." I could reply with a like comment and we could waste time and energy exchanging insults.  I'm not interested in doing that. 

 We know, although you and the others who support this law will never acknowledge it,  that it was specifically written to "discourage" panhandling by punishing anyone who donats to panhandlers from a car.   This ban, of course, eliminates the primary source of contributions to panhandlers. It's designed to give Springfield panhandlers the "bum's rush", while hopefully passing the test of its Constitutionality.  It may be supported by the Courts, it may not be.  As I've repeatedly said, that is the Courts' responsibility.  We'll likely get to see how it "plays out."

I commute by bicycle and choose a route that avoids as much traffic as possible even though it adds mileage. I've been riding for 40 years and have seen a great improvement in bicycle acceptance and numbers of people commuting. The city isn't perfect in its layout for cycling, but it's pretty great compared to a lot of cities where I've ridden. 

There have always been polar arguments as to whether bicycles belong on the road. I think both parties should be accepting. I always thank the motorist with a wave when they yield me the right away whether I legally have it or not. I always respect their right of weight. I try to ride a predictable  manor so they're confident in passing me. I do this to try and create a sense of good will for all cyclists.
