There Is Method to This Seeming Madness Another great editorial by Woody West [The Last Word, Oct. 12]. His comments regarding opinion polls and sound bites are right on target. But tell me, Woody, are you testing their hypothesis that all of us truly do have short attention spans or very poor comprehension of what we read? I cannot believe that your reference to "Dan Brokaw, Peter Rather and Tom Jennings" was a typo. I certainly hope that most readers noticed it. Ronald Albanowski Levittown, Pa.
