Tragic loss
Re “‘Ardent Small-Government Guy’ Moves On” (11/26/2015): Oh, the tragedy. Losing Larry Kaufmann will leave us with nowhere to read right-wing small-government propaganda but Madison Newspapers, all the local television stations, every news and business cable channel, every Clear Channel-owned radio station, and The Badger Herald. How will we survive?

Rick, I’m sure someone will take my place, thereby maintaining Madison’s right-wing media hegemony.

Teaching globally
Re “Acting Globally” (11/26/2015): Professor Jonathan Patz is also teaching an online MOOC, sponsored through Coursera, that is free and online. The course is called “Climate Change and Public Health,” and it is excellent.

Corrections
In last week’s paper, the article “Acting Globally” gave the incorrect title for Jeffrey Thompson. He is an executive adviser and CEO emeritus for Gundersen Health Systems.
In the haiku compilation, the first line of Jeffrey Johannes’ haiku was broken in the wrong place. Here’s the correct version:
Marques Bovre still
singing from lonesome county
Take care of my soul.
