Editor, The terrorist attack on Sept. 11 reminded us of the true value of freedom.

I feel utterly compelled to respond to the wildlife preserves column by Paula Moore and Carla Bennett.

Editor, Have I missed the announcement of the emergency evacuation plan for Albuquerque due to a terrorist attack?
