I had traveled across this beautiful country by car several times.....we would visit relatives in and around Seattle. But in 1993 returning from a relatives 80th birthday party we stopped the last night in Toledo Ohio. Sunday morning we attended mass there and the last song was America The Beautiful..........the tears ran down my cheeks that Labor Day weekend morning as I had seen it all , from New York State to Washington .....this great land of ours we are so very blessed to call our own......and since that time I get too choked up to sing and the tears brim my eyelids in awe of it all.....and while folks chose to fly over it those of us that take the time to drive through it know full well the meaning of it all...........

Why, in today's Peoria Journal Star, did your column use the word 'infamous' in its headline????
Infamous has negative connotations not fitting the subject of the story about America the Beautiful
The head line was ENGLISH PROFESSOR PENNED INFAMOUS LINES.

Because the editors apparently don't know the meaning of "infamous." You should take it up with them. They chose the wording, not the columnists.
