Show I I . I Review hit wrong note ToRonGeorg: Reading your review of the Jackson Browne concert reminded me of the grade school student who wrote a book report but didn't read the book. Instead he read the synopsis synop-sis of the book on the back and tried to "buffalo" the teacher into believing believ-ing he read the book. In fact if your name wasn't on the photos in the paper I would have guessed that you didn't even attend the concert. Where were you sitting? First let's clear up some inaccuracies inac-curacies in the review. The Rev. Gary Davis wrote the song "Co caine" that Browne and Lindley performed. per-formed. The only similarity between Davis's and Cale's song is the name. Browne, Glen Frey and Lindley sat down in a hotel room and recorded their version in 1977. 1 refer you to the "Running on Empty" album released the same year. What you should have reported was the clever way Browne changed the lyrics from his original version. That has to be tough though when you are ignorant to the musician and his music. Besides your own, I don't know of anyone else's ears "that fell deaf" to Browne's lyrics and music. There were plenty of epithets thrown at Exxon, Ollie North and the C.I.A. in the section where I was sitting. Fortunately For-tunately there still are a few musicians musi-cians that write music with a message instead of profit and Jackson Browne is one of them. As far as his so called "staged encores," en-cores," you were the only one that I talked to that felt "tortured." It was evident walking home that the crowd loved the encores. Seriously I have never heard anyone complaining complain-ing about too much music I You must have left long before the encores. In closing if I were the teacher who read your review, I would have given Browne and Lindley an A ,but Ron Georg, YOU FLUNKED! TomDoering Seniors want mental stimulation Editor: As a longtime summer visitor from Arizona to Park City, we ap-preciate ap-preciate the cooler weather and mountain air. Many of us enjoy golf, tennis, swimming and sight-seeing, also the cultural advantage of nearly near-ly Salt Lake City. However in Park City there is no mental stimulation offered, butwhich we did experience in Logan. The News Sun of Sun City reorts on July 6th: "Some 900 summer visitors are setting down for two months of active campus life again." Another item in August, "Dr. Robert Hoover conducted a summer visitors class on Soviet American relations in the 1990s last week. In a series of five lectures structured to bring Sun Citians up to date, etc." It does seem odd that Logan can offer so much and Park City is devoid of anything similar. The Visitors Bureau doesn't understand the problem. Any inquiry, in-quiry, referred me to the Utah University. That is the responsibility of the Bureau, not nine as a regular visitor.

Respectfully, Bernard Victor The very bottom line Mothers of the Park City area : I am sure many of you are already aware of the disturbing facts about so-called "disposable" diapers and the impact they are having on our environment. Several mothers including in-cluding myself, have decided that cloth diapers are the best alternative alter-native and have begun using the Salt Lake City diaper service. As they will not pick up and deliver in this area until they have at least 20 to 25 clients, we have been taking turns driving down once a week ourselves. We are urging any of you who are interested in-terested in using the diaper service to join us immediately. "Disposable" diapers are actually so difficult to dispose of that society is now faced with a serious solid waste problem. Each baby uses from 6,000 to 10,000 diapers. America is tossing (along with other forms of plastic) approximately 18 billion diapers containing an estimated 2.8 millions tons of excrement excre-ment and urine in the trash each year. And every one of these diapers can take up to 500 years to decompose. decom-pose. The Kimberley Clark factory in Northern Utah disposes of tons of disposable diapers each day that have not even reached the consumer, con-sumer, but which have flaws or do not pass inspection. Add to that the used diapers of the baby capital of theU.S...Utah! Twenty-seven states are expected to run out of landfill space within the next five years. There is also the growing concern of infectious material seej. into our soil and ground water, human waste can carry up to 100 viruses, including live polio and hepatitis viruses from vaccine residues, which present a potential hazard to sanitation workers and the ground water system. Our country is now starting to realize the impact that (non) disposable diapers are having on our environment. Last month, the Nebraska legislature passed a bill that will outlaw the sale of non-degradable non-degradable diapers beginning in October Oc-tober of 1993. Similar laws are being discussed in Oregon, Iowa and Washington. However, even so-called so-called biodegradable diapers may not be the answer, as they must be exposed to sunlight to break down, which is not very likely in compacted com-pacted garbage dumps. Many environnmentalists, waste management officials and health professionals agree: It's time for a return to cloth diapers. With reusable diapers, human waste is properly channeled into the sewage system and the strain on landfills is lessened. If you think disposables are too convenient to give up please reconsider. recon-sider. The diaper service is very convenient and actually costs less. You don't even have to rinse the diaper out. the diaper service provides pro-vides a plastic bag and deodorizer which you place in the diaper pail. The house won't smell "diapery." The diapers are laundered so that 1400 offices worldwide for your convenience and assurance American Express Travelers Cheques Agency they are PH balanced virtually eliminating diaper rash and you can have natural, breathable cotton next to your baby's bottom, rather than exposing it to chemicals 24 hours a day. With the new velcro-closured velcro-closured diaper wraps, you don't even need diaper pins! It's easy to devise a system which is convenient for your day-care provider as well. It's your decision to help make a difference. After all, the world we are molding today will be our children's world of tomorrow. I want to contribute to a better future for my daughter. She means everything to me, and if changing a simple diaper will help, I'll do it! Please join me and other concerned concern-ed mothers by calling-TODAY! Thank you, Karri Hays Walzer 645-7083 Soft landings, maybe locally Editor: On Friday, Saturday and Sunday (Sept, 15, 16, 17) the Seventh Annual Park City Autumn Aloft will be occurring oc-curring in Park City. This year's event will include the flight of 28 hot air balloons. As it is impossible to control Mother Nature and the winds, there is a chance that one or a number of those balloons may overfly overf-ly your property. Be assured that the balloonists are both experienced and conscientious. They have attended briefings about our area in general and received specific information about areas where there is livestock, crops or otherwise sensitive areas. They will be concerned about disrupting disrup-ting your home life, horses and livestock, and will make every effort to make their appearance in the areas as unobtrusive as possible. As horses and stock sometimes become upset with the noise generated by balloois, you may want to take specn! precautions with these anima uotween the hours of 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. these three mornings. If a particular horse or animal is scared by the noise of a balloon, it may be preferable to the animal to be able to run free in a meadow or pasture rather than be constrained in a stable or stall. We are looking forward to a very special and exciting event and hope you will participate with us. If you have any concerns, please let us hear from you. the number at the Balloon Club is 649-6100 or you can reach me at 649-8667.
