Letter: Change of terminology?

EDITOR,
I was interested to see that you have now changed your caption for what used to be called “Obituaries.” It now seems you have adopted the term “Dispatch Log” (Press-Banner, July 22, Page 7). One can only assume that this change is in response to the Obama-care end-of-life planning program. Admittedly, your new caption does better convey the intent of the president’s Independent Payment Advisory Board (aka “The Death Panel”) in assuring that the elderly will be “dispatched” before their health care cost becomes an inconvenience.

Editor’s note: Obituaries will still be “Obituaries” in the Press-Banner. The editorial staff regrets the error and appreciates Mr. Scothorn’s humorous response to the misplaced header.
