The Daily Barometer responds

Dan Traylor, news editor of "The Daily Barometer," wrote in response to our blog, "Presidential candidates' hometown newspapers endorse each other," wanting to know: "Are you a student, or a member of the community?"

Yes to both. We are students of life and members of the world community.

Traylor added: "I'll keep my eye on your blog, thanks for keeping your eye on our paper."

Thanks, Mr. Traylor--and you're welcome.
