Thanks For Exposing Management
      Dear Editor, I want to thank The Wave for exposing my cooperative Dayton Beach Park, its managing agent Phipps in last week's issue. Because of The Wave's insightful article, many of us were able to attend the Monday, April 14 meeting and hear first hand the incompetence of the management and the majority of Dayton's Board of Directors past and present.

Knockout Punch On CP
      Dear Editor, I would like to applaud the New York State Assembly, its members and Speaker Sheldon Silver for delivering a knockout punch to Mayor Bloomberg's wrong-headed Congestion Pricing (CP).

State Legislators Have Helped

Indeed she has procured 90% of the monies we have used to build and renovate our Arts facilities in Fort Tilden.

Obama And Patriotism
      Dear Editor, I am an Obama supporter and I read your article questioning Mr. Obama's patriotism. It upset me greatly, so I did some research. It seems that Mr. Obama doesn't wear a lapel pin because he decided that doing something about patriotism was more important than wearing a lapel pin. So I wonder what's better; saying you're a patriot or really being a patriot?
