LaborNET	Ask Neale	Tool of the Week

Letters to the Editor

Love Your Tool!

Love your tool of the week column. Your profiles are not only informative but very entertaining. I enjoyed scribbling over Larry Anthony this week. i am going to print one off as a urinal target. I'm sure there are a lot of welfare recipients out there who would really enjoy doing a lot worse to Larrys face. Please keep up exposing these tools to the ridicule they deserve.
