Wouldn't it wonderful if the greatest problem in the world, or even in the local community, was determining whether or not to "officially" name Kesey Square....Kesey Square.. officially naming it for Ken Kesey won't suddenly attract those "druggies" some associate with Mr. Kesey.  Naming it "Broadway Plaza" or "Abstention Place" won't drive them away.  

How about naming it for Mr Kesey and, in the dedication speech, mentioning it's in recognition of his writing, not his drug use.....since that, in fact, is the motivation for the support of naming it for Kesey.  Then, who knows, the Council might find some issues of more importance to address....Gary Crum
