In response to the opinion piece “Flan-El” By Colin Kaferle, I would just like to say…where did you grow up??? Those of us from Vermont wear clothes like Carhartts and flannel and no we are not all “hill people”. And what is wrong with the Salvation Army? Just because not everyone wants to be a conformist and wear Gap does not make us bad people. Next time you decide to express your opinion make sure it is only your opinion and don’t speak for all of us because I don’t want people to stop wearing Carhartts and flannel. Oh and good for the guy in the library…you should get a few pointers from him!
