Dear Friends of Desert Hot Springs ,

I enjoy your new format and find it helpful to find stories. I especially like that you have been including stories lately about some other cities and not just our city (Desert Hot Springs). The only question I have is why some stories you keep repeating. I notice you keep placing the same stories over and over. I like your new format but just wondering why so much repeat on some stories like the homeless stories.

Loyal Reader

Ed - We will try not to repeat but if a story is being covered by the local media we will link to it more than once. Thanks for your comments.

 

Dear FODHS,
Nice job. Can't say I miss the old FODHS but maybe you could bring back the cartoons once in a while. Those were a riot. On second thought...

OK Okie

Ed - We had two cartoonist. Both wanted to be paid so we fired them.

Dear FODHS,
What are you talking about the old website was really good and I used to laugh my sides off. I really enjoyed reading it so I don't know why you changed. The new format does make it easy to find the news so I like that because the other websites especialy the Desert Sun are slow to open for some reason I don';t know why.

Ed - It took a lot of work to keep up that old site. We're resting.
