text: It's interesting the Guard  would publish this version of Jakki Staat McDonald's  online comment  in "Crowdsource", "What's Hot...".
  Following the posting of this rather extreme statement with its misleading reference to Territorial  Highway, I responded with some facts on Territorial to clarify the situation.  McDonald responded with a  better, more moderate  and thoughtful version of her concerns.  Civil Comments had operated as it should, with a polite dialogue leading to a better product than the original. Certainly her revised version would have been better published than this first comment.  
  This is also an example of the fact that Civil Comments, with its opportunity for immediate response and multiple dialogues, is often better than the print edition in providing timely discussions of current issues.
