To the Editor:

I’ll be darned if I can figure out how the word MAYOR could possibly have been rendered as JUNEOR in your Star Herald June 10, 2004, issue. What kind of computer program (or prankster) would provide such a sly and amusing transformation?Looking forward to the latter part of summer, while noting that the adjective "august" means "majestic," I wonder whether we shall read about the doings of AUGUSTOR GUST — a most impressive designation! I suspect this would be truly embarrassing, however, to the worthy gentleman who certainly is the MAYOR but not one of the Caesars.Thanks, anyway, for the refreshing and playful perspective./s/ Jerry HansenIvan J. "Jerry" HansenBoston, Mass.Editor’s note: In a fluke misapplication of a common word tool, "search and replace," all references to the word "may" on pages 1 and 2A of the June 10 Star Herald were changed to "june." The tool was supposed to have applied only to the weather entry on page 2.
