Please allow me to congratulate and thank the Somerset School of Dance for a marvellous night last Saturday. "Dance through the Ages'' was done in such a professional manner, that at times I forgot it was a Dance School presentation.

Special congratulations to the young talented Ally Lusher for her interpretation of "The Dying Swan''. It was very well done.

YVETTE V.A. SWAN Warwick Take a chill pill, UBP November 10, 2000 Dear Sir, I enjoyed viewing the constitutional meeting on ZBM tonight. Before the meeting neither my husband nor I completely understood what this was all about, now we do.

It was very informative, and we both got a history lesson on what Bermuda was like in the 1960s. I will now pass the history that Dame Lois Brown Evans gave us to my 5-year-old child. The PLP has every right to do what they are doing to make it better. The PLP and many other Bermudians have fought long and hard, you have my support and everyone else in my family.

UBP, sit down and take a chill pill you could have made it right for all Bermudians, but you did not. It was designed to hold us back. Most of us are not uneducated any more, our forefathers may have been deprived of an education, as Dame Lois Browne pointed out, they had us in school at 7 years old and out at 13. No wonder it has been such a struggle.

I am very fortunate that me or my child did not have to struggle the way they did and I thank the PLP and my forefathers for never giving up, and fighting for all Bermudians that were being deprived. The time has come UBP. Let go and let the Government get on with their job, you are wasting precious time.

For years my mother and grandmother had to accept things the way they were, but no more. We also need Bermuda history lessons in the classrooms, so that young Bermudians can see what struggles our forefathers went through.

WAS BLIND, NOW CAN SEE Devonshire An accounting problem November 15, 2000 Dear Sir, A local accounting partner was complaining bitterly about the Employment Tax he must now pay. It was suggested that if he reduced his astronomical salary and benefits, the problem would accordingly solve itself.

I am not absolutely certain he got the point.
