Lilyanne Paolucci Werle: ‘You Goofed Index’

01:00 AM EDT on Thursday, July 2, 2009

I really miss the delightful “weather illustrations” by the children in Rhode Island. I always looked forward to seeing the illustrations’ titles chosen by our young ones, the use of color, the exploration of feeling, the pride within every offering by children from pre-school to Grade 6. Although what has replaced these “smile-makers” on this weather page — the “running index,” the “astronomical data,” the “solunar tables,” the “asthma index,” “the UV index,” etc. — may be interesting and helpful to some people, your newsroom shouldn’t have taken news space away from expressions of joy and budding talent. That decision will place The Journal onto the “You Goofed Index.”
