A letter to the editor

I've been fuming over the Girl Scout cookie name change for quite some time now, and even though I'm cooling off a little bit, that does not mean I'm still not searching for answers.

When my article was published in JMUs newspaper The Breeze, it stirred up people's emotions--and I was flooded with responses.  

I received e-mails  from people who share my feelings, people who disagree, from those who think I should get over it and grow up, and those who knew why the names are different and wanted to enlighten me. 

I'm very grateful to Jillian Alder, a freshmen at JMU who sent in a letter to the editor to help out "disappointed Sean," with my cookie problem.

Didn't get a chance to read my article, Dear Girl Scouts of America? Scroll down a little to read my story or click on the link to read my rant on the changing name of America's favorite cookies.
