I gave my classmates a quick survey; it showed that 30% don’t pay for their own clothes, 30% don’t go to the doctor's office alone, and 40% don’t call for their own appointments. In fact, 23.1% feel like their parents are in control of their life. I think these stats are crazy since we are all going to move onto our adult lives in a few months.

Students ask readers to do there part in managing invasive species. Lake Superior School District students sent these following letters to the editor following the Seach Change boating/voyaging program that visited their school.
Hal the computer in Arthur Clarke’s novel 2001 was ahead of its time when it told Dave the astronaut not to pull its memory banks and threaten the mission to Saturn. Dave had grown concerned that Hal had begun to think itself above the mere human beings aboard, a being vastly superior to the astronauts and their large but unwieldy brains.
I read the letter to the editor published in the February 24, 2023, edition of The Lake County Press concerning the Duluth Complex and the copper-nickel deposits located within the complex. Several years ago I attended 2 days of meetings of The Institute of Lake Superior Geology. It is mainly for professional geologists who have interests in the Lake Superior Region. I attended the meetings this year in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Amateurs, such as myself, also attended the meetings. I had the chance to talk with the Minnesota State Geologist and the Minnesota State Geologist Emeritus concerning the copper-nickel deposits located south the Missabe Iron Range several years ago. They both said that the area from just east of State Highway 1 where it meets the Kawishiwi River/Birch Lake and going west to about Virginia had the second largest reserve of copper ores in the world. We also have the third largest reserve of nickel ores. I asked someone from the State Geologist’s Office at the meetings this year. He confirmed their statements. The largest such districts are in South Africa.
We want to thank all the member-owners that attended Cooperative Light & Power's recent Annual Meeting. We had a terrific turnout and were fortunate to be indoors together again.
