In article <1993May14.110315.21033@aisb.ed.ac.uk> diana@aisb.ed.ac.uk (Diana Bental) writes: Ken offers us three address to which we can complain about EDC's Zero Tolerance campaign..... .. and presumably those self-same addresses can be used by anyone who wishes to compliment EDC on their effective use of resources. After all, just how much would it cost for EDC to put up posters on prime sites that EDC owns and has at its own disposal, and to Obviously quite a lot when you take into account the lost revenue from commercial advertisers. I would be happier if the Council sold the sites for advertising, perhaps for the new Corsa? Anyway, unless EDC are inundated by complaints, I doubt that those will outweigh the obvious positive outcomes of the campaign, which include the setting up of three groups of volunteers (members of the public who contacted EDC as a result of the poster campaign) to find out more about and deal with some of the problems it describes. Yeah, right Diana, and I wonder how many dreadful crimes will be prevented? On the other hand, when councillors get inundated by letters telling them that people will be voting against them next time around, perhaps their tiny brains will be jarred out of their dreams. -- ===Jeremy Henderson=== =jeremy@castle.ed.ac.uk= "I imagine a Texas prostitute would be at least as reliable as the average dentist"
