LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Impressive work, but . . .

Please don't use just part of a quote ("The Changing Face of Work," July 25) and perpetuate possibly the most misquoted phrase in the English language, even if it is misquoted by your source. It's from the Bible and not that hard to check. The meaning of the phrase when it is misquoted is so different from its original intent: "The love of money is the root of all evil."

I have come to expect a high standard of journalism from The Seattle Times, and I found it unfortunate for this piece to end with what I considered to be a misquote. Kudos are due to both Mr. Dietrich and the photographer, Mr. Reese. The story and photos were excellent. The photo montage on pages 14 and 15 was especially well done, exhibiting a degree of creativity I do not find typical of a Sunday supplement. Please let Mr. Reese know that I spent quite some time analyzing the components of this impressive photograph. His visuals added to the impact of an informative and thought-provoking article.

I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

— Karen Craven, Sumner
