At last the fervor of the election is over, and Alaska's Political Prisoners have been released.

3rd World, Hello.

-- Andy Anderson, Wasilla

(Editor's note: Presumably Mr. Anderson is referring to Pete Kott and Vic Kohring getting out of prison.)

Enstar - Ouch!

Am I the only one, or did anyone else feel outrage when the latest EnStar gas company bill arrived in the mail? They have a monopoly, as in the only game in town, and are gouging the customers; I was told "due to a really cold winter"......Where is the Regulatory Commission? Hold on, because I'm sure more "rate increases" are coming; too bad our paychecks don't increase to keep up with them. There's a great word for it...Usury...look it up.

-- Ann Wilson, Anchorage

Nice job, Elise

Ms Patkotak's article of 17 June was excellent. She hit the nail squarely on the head. Had the Palins chosen to ignore Letterman's comment and rise above it ... the comment would have passed into obscurity save for a few snickers. Thank you for a very good piece of writing.

-- Barbara Minckler
