A Word from the Tunnel-Rats

To the Editor:

Dan Cole’s article, “How Water Tunnels Worked,” BAR 06:02, brought back some marvelous memories of the 1978 BAR Tour. We walked through many of the tunnels he discusses in the article as well as other tunnels with different purposes. We adopted the name “tunnel-rats” because of our visits to so many. The article is extremely well done and lives up to what we take for granted from BAR. I must again tell you what a marvelous experience the BAR Tours are. Lorna Zimmerman is a superb director and a gracious lady. Congratulations for publishing a great periodical and for providing opportunities for unforgettable and truly educational tours!

Both Sides of the Velikovsky Controversy

To the Editor:

It seems to me that many of your readers expect you to print only that which agrees with their biased viewpoint.
