I sent the following Letter to the Editor:

"Okay, I admit it, I'm confused.

In their story in the July 12, 2003 issue of the Bee (Autopsy set today for fetus found in a Fresno trash bin), Louis Galvan and Roya Aziz refer to a "full-term female fetus." I'm confused...if the subject is full-term, how is it, by any loose standard, a "fetus?"

Of course, they may be using the actual, definitive meaning of the Latin word "fetus," which is "child."

But why do I doubt it?

Maybe the Bee can clear up this mystery..."

Anyone think it'll be printed?

I doubt they will print your letter. The Fresno Bee is notorious for left-wing crap. But nice try. Thanks for posting her and for caring about this little baby girl.

Hey, Adam - I'm in contact with the RTL office wondering if we can get a proper burial for this baby girl. My friend told me that the Knights of Columbus had been successful in the past in getting a baby's body handed over for burial. Worth a try. Will keep you posted.
