SEATTLE -- Some called me a selfish misfit.

Others said I was out to destroy society as a progressive secularist.

That's just a sampling of the criticism I got for saying I didn't think the woman who didn't spend money that wasn't hers did not deserve a reward.

Joe Voelker writes: "I'm sure it's quite easy for someone with a secure job and a cushioned bank account to babble...(over) whether...an honest person in today's world should (get) a reward..."

Esther Willup: "Ken, you're a hard-hearted grumpy old man! Can't you see that there's nothing wrong...with acknowledging that she did the right thing? Of course she deserves a reward."

Wayne Smith: "If she hadn't pointed out the problem, it might (have happened again)...I wonder if any (other)...whistleblowers...didn't deserve a reward either."

Walt Rissler: "I know it's hard for someone (like you) who wants to destroy our society to understand a good, moral religious person like this lady, so you have to find an indirect way to insult her."

And finally from Judy Antassi: "I like you better when you go after the likes of Tim Eyman."

Glad to oblige Judy: No way, no how does he deserve a reward for anything.

Thanks for writing everyone.

Have a great weekend.
