When you announced that NBC was going to describe the Iraq conflict as a civil war, some critics jokingly called it your Cronkite moment [referring to Walter Cronkite's 1968 on-air declaration that the Vietnam War was unwinnable]. Does it bother you that you're not always taken seriously...
...stressed out by attention, has recorded the best single-season performance for a back in football history. "By far," says Emmitt Smith, the league's all-time leading rusher--for now. Tomlinson is the best ever, gushes Chargers coach Marty Schottenheimer. That means better than Red Grange, Jim Brown, Walter Payton and Barry Sanders.

...Walter Isaacson argued cogently for dialogue with Iran about stabilizing Iraq and then sabotaged his valid arguments by name calling [Dec. 4]. Does it promote fruitful dialogue to call Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad "mad" and declare that he sounds "like a lunatic"? Has Ahmadinejad done anything remotely as mad and lunatic as invading and occupying Iraq or bombing Lebanon? Demonizing and name calling are what have got us into this horrific mess in the Middle East. CARL J. EKBERG Purgitsville, W.Va...
