For a time, I was prolific and the Examiner didn't get many people writing in so I was getting a lot published. But then I mellowed out a bit and now am less-often outraged enough to write in on topics, but
still do on occasion to the SF papers.
04/03/2018: On some proposal for easing property tax basis transfer for old people.
12/14/2014: Another Soda Tax one, but for LA Times so spread the gospel south.
10/14/2014: More Soda Tax, this on responding to Chron editorial in support of it. Surprised they printed as I am becoming a bit of a broken record on this.
10/12/2014: On a bit of a roll; Another on my favorite topic to rail against in the Chronicle, the Soda Tax.
10/09/2014: Major coup for me: First LA Times letter published on the Health Care Surcharge moving down south.
10/08/2014: Another bit of a layoff, but in the mood after reading opinion in Chronicle whining about bail being too high for poor people in jail.
12/15/2013: On a roll, my agreeing with article on SF columnist being mad at 49ers moving; another headline, bigger font, and picture illustrating my thoughts.
11/20/2013: Another Chronicle one, this being against the Soda Tax, got the honor of the headline, too. On the "approved" list, I guess, because no call verifying I actually wrote it.

04/18/2012: Commenting on an article on the high price of lowering flags for half-mast to honor people which elicited my disdain
03/30/2012: A response to an article claiming SF Muni to be a great transit value. Here's a rebuttal letter from the next day. The following day, a rebuttal to this guy was there, but I don't have that one.
