Hurricane Andrew cartoon

In the face of the difficulties and hardships endured by those who experienced Hurricane Andrew, the cartoon in the Aug. 27 issue of the Monitor lacks compassion.

It certainly isn't "back to normal" or "business as usual" for those people who lost everything. Surely something pointing out the need to help and support the hurricane victims would have been more appropriate. Lenore M. Berner, Skokie, Ill.
