Richmond - The Editor, "Better places for museum millions," Letters, Jan. 24. Diane, there is absolutely no limit to the amount of money that city hall is prepared to pour into their beloved owe-val (Olympic oval), the biggest bottomless pit in Richmond.Since the Olympics, they have come up with the most inane schemes for squandering taxpayers' money and will continue to dream up more in years to come.In fact, I am convinced there is a special department at city hall working full time to see who can come up with the craziest idea.Then that one is selected. According to Mayor Brodie, thousands of visitors will be coming from all over the world to visit this museum.I have to wonder what this projection is based on.Did he use the dartboard method? And how many Richmondites are prepared to pay a fee to visit this museum? I agree with you Diane, that there are any number of more worthwhile projects waiting to be built.But you have to remember that the owe-val was Mayor Brodie's brainchild and will always take precedence.Robert PaulRichmond
