Dear Ann Landers,
'll bet you have already received several hun-dred letters from readers like myself who were stunned by your insen-sitivity. I refer to your response to the woman whose husband had been looking for a job for three years. You said her letter was "downright de-pressing" and suggested that her "negative attitude" must have had a lot to do with her bad luck. Get real. I know Ph.D.s who have lost their jobs and are now work-ing for $6 an hour. You are going to hear plenty about your unsympa-thetic response. -Judy S. in Durham, N.C.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, and there is no sea anywhere around. He says he wants us to use Lake Harriet instead. It all sounds very sen-timental, but the other members of the family insist it’s a crazy idea, and they will not agree to it. My brother and I think Grandpa should have his way. After all, when life has gone out of the body what difference does it make what is done with it? Please agree with us. It would make Grandpa happy to know you are on his side. It might also help persuade the other members of the family to grant that sweet old man his last wish. --Joe from Bismarck, N.D.
