...concept of a drive-through strip joint was so funny if it was in his neighborhood [STEVE LOPEZ'S AMERICA, Oct. 2]! There are already two nude dance clubs in Salem Township. How many do you need in a community of 7,500 people? I can't believe the owner of the Climax Gentleman's Club believes he is in the "entertainment business." P.T.

...vegetarians will tell you their decision to cut out meat came gradually, over a period of months or even years. Lauren Butts, a high school junior from Medford, Ore., recalls the exact moment of her conversion. At age 13, while traveling in France with her family, Butts, a horse owner, accidentally ordered horsemeat from a restaurant menu. Though not versed in the differences between cheval and boeuf, she did manage to "figure it out in time" to avoid eating the burger. But something clicked. "It made sense then," she says.
