Thanks for providing another perspective. We all benefit from the hearing it. I don't mind getting the Sun Plus and I have even benefited from reading them. When I have finished reading them I simply recycle them. No harm done. The fact that local businesses support the Sun Plus delivery will definitely inform my decision on whether to cancel the delivery.<BR>

The bigger issue is when property owners or tenants do not pick them up and dispose of them but leave them on the street or on their porch for days. This problem we can solve only by opening up lines of communication with our neighbors and asking them not to litter and to maintain a clean exterior. We can advocate for our blocks and keep our blocks safer by getting to know as many owners and residents on our block as possible, making them feel like part of the neighborhood, informing them of neighborhood clean and safe standards and, if all else fails, by using the systems and processes that exist to change offensive behavior.<BR>

If anyone would like to help with this effort by becoming a block leader on their block or by joining the CVCA Sanitation Committee where issues such as these are discussed and solutions proposed, please contact me.<BR>

It does not hurt the environment, because it is printed on re-cycled paper. It helps the local economy by featuring businesses and organizations in the Baltimore area--not businesses from other states or other countries like the Internet does. Think of it as junk mail if you will, but it helps the working class during these tough economic times.<BR>
Happy New Year<BR>
