    Chrysler Building to be sold

    It would be a good idea to learn Chinese, too. Besides, Americans for the most part do not speak enough other languages.

    Was brown the old black?

    Dick Rossi, fought Japanese as member of Flying Tigers

    I appreciate that you printed the obit for Dick Rossi. I remember reading about him when I was a kid in the 60's. Another of the "greatest generation" goes off to a well deserved rest.
