Some angry mail received on this one:
I wonder who will be more insulted by the cartoon you published on the Letters page today. My father who was recently laid off after 23 years at CAMCO, or my husband who has a PhD in bio-chemistry? --Ms. K. Ryckman, Dundas
Your Opinion Page cartoonist MacKay hit a new "low'" with his stupid, ignorant depiction of McMaster's recently announced purchase of the former Camco property to establish a technology research and development park in Hamilton. It will be far more comprehensive than a Bio-Tech Park and if a "nerd" the likes of a Bill Gates (Microsoft-Seattle) or a Mike Lazardis and James Balsillie (RIM-Waterloo) should emerge to benefit Hamilton, I hope you will stuff that cartoon down Mackay's throat!--Mr. K. McIntyre, Burlington.
McMaster's going to take the Camco site and turn it into a research park that will bring 1500 new, high-paying jobs to Hamilton. So, you print a cartoon that's derogatory to the very people who you should be thanking? What the !*$#@ are you smoking down there?--Mr. J. Merrall
