Did I read your Wednesday headline right? “County: Misinformation a public health crisis.” Really? Of all the business Clark County has to be handled, this is what our commissioners feel is the most important? I read a book once where the Ministry of Truth was instigated by the bad guys. The bad guys lost big time.

Who is to determine what is “misinformation”? Our trusted commissioners? What qualifications do they have to establish anything as truth or not? And if there’s no punishment for anyone who holds and exercises different views, then why even make the declaration?

LETTER: Tired rhetoric on green energy
Frederick Hewett Cambridge, Massachusetts

Nevadans should look west to California, where 100 percent of that huge state’s energy was recently supplied by renewable sources for a stretch of more than nine hours.
