‘For Love of a Ballpark’
I’ve appreciated Andrew Wolf’s prominent voice and thought provoking columns concerning the preservation of Yankee Stadium in recent months [Opinion, “For Love of a Ballpark,” September 22, 2008].
Is anyone listening, anywhere? If there is a more deserving building to be preserved, I’ve failed to find it.

‘Unfinished Business’
Regarding a recent article, “Unfinished Business” [Arts & Letters, September 16, 2008].
“Virtual JFK: Vietnam if Kennedy Had Lived,” the new documentary at Film Forum that theorizes how John F. Kennedy would have managed the Vietnam debacle had he lived, misses a fundamental point — his refusal to take the advice of a superior strategist, General Charles DeGaulle, who warned Kennedy, “Don’t get involved.”
That says it all.
