More conflict

I can't say that the Rogers Public Library's desire for a new heating and air-conditioning unit is important. I want people to be as comfortable as possible as they can be while paging through centuries of the written word. What I can't understand is why it's received so much coverage. From the first story on the issue — I think John Gore has written three of four, but the Morning News Web site disappeared, along with its archives — there has never been any opposition to the purchase and installation of the new unit. I wonder if editor Rusty Turner is on the Rogers Public Library Foundation Board. No, wait, no one's on that board now, but metro editor Leeanna Walker is not far removed from her term among its members. Ok, I'm not confused anymore.
