"Great article. The NTSB cited the fact that the National Weather Service failed to issue a severe weather warning for mariners as part of their “Probable Cause” of the accident (along with the microburst itself, and that Captain Lerro did not abandon the trip once he realized there was zero visibility). This accident was a tragedy on so many levels. RIP, Captain Lerro."

"Wonderful program. During this slumping economy it’s great to see the Y and the Florida Orchestra offering this creative program to underserved children. An appreciation of music and the arts in our next generation, is vital to a well-rounded preparation to meet the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow."

"The name John Prine has circulated around my brain and more often my heart. He had me with his peaches song that was so wildly funny and rang so true.. all the way to “Hello in there”. Though young, I’d worked with the very old and recognized how beautiful & brilliant he was. I can never forget his words or his very modern take on growing up in the USA and the power those words held if one cares deeply about our past culture and the joy he gave so freely with humility and his humor which was supposed to take out the sting but couldn’t God bless his big ole heart."

"I do truly appreciate StPeteCatalyst for publishing these articles, but (no offense) there’s prolly not a huge readership. Why hasn’t Tampa Bay Times or Bay News Nine covered any of this. Maybe they have and I’m just not seeing it??"

-- Lucas from Marina plan met with mixed reviews at council meeting
