Certainly there’s some fun being poked at Eudora by the station, but it’s nice to see our hometown getting some recognition for the merits of small-town living.

Point of View
What do you think about a proposed ban on smoking in public places such as restaurants, bars and workplaces?
As much as I hate government interfering with our lives, I love the smoking ban. Going out in Lawrence is so nice without smelling cigarette smoke at your table while eating.
