From sokolich to Baroni: We should talk. Someone needs to tell me that the recent traffiC debacle was notpunitive in nature. The last four reporters that contacted me suggest that the people they are speakingwith absolutely believe it to be punishment. Try as I may to dispel these rumors I am having a tough time.
