Dear Editor:
RE: “No privacy issue” and “Work together” letters, Aug. 6.
These letter writers are correct that the restaurant has your name and phone number when you book a reservation and the newspaper requires it to publish a letter.
What they do not have is your express written consent to forward your private information to the state or anyone else.
The list and the explanation the pub gives you is the written informed consent they require to send it on to the authorities.
I expect that my doctor is the one to inform me that I have a medical problem needing treatment and isolation, not the bartender.
