Kudos to Judy Hodgson for "Our Word" (Aug. 4). One of many reasons I keep renewing my subscription to the Journal.

Several months ago Bill Israel was mentioned in an article ("Rove's Brain," May 5).  I was fortunate to meet him and his then wife Claudia in the late 1970s and didn't know where he lives now or what he is doing.  I bought a copy of his book, A Nation Seized - How Karl Rove and the Political Right Stole Reality, Beginning with the News (available by order at Northtown Books!), and highly recommend it to Journal readers.
