I enjoy Q&A with Mr. Federal Way, and although I hesitate to write a letter to someone who refers to himself in the third-person, here goes.

Mr. Federal Way, I understand your concerns about the PACC and the fine arts in Federal Way (Aug. 23). And I appreciate your honesty in admitting that your opinion may be affected by your lack of interest in the same.

But I ask you to consider long-suffering Mrs. Federal Way. It would seem that 50 percent of your household would benefit from a Performing Arts and Conference Center located in our hometown.

I suggest you and Mrs. Federal Way attend a performance of the Federal Way Symphony, Centerstage, the Federal Way Chorale, or any of the many fine performing arts organizations in town.

In fact, I will give you and Mrs. Federal Way tickets to a Symphony performance, and I promise to refund the entire amount you pay for your adult beverages if less than half of your household enjoys the concert. I guarantee that if you keep Mrs. Federal Way happy, you’ll be happy.

David Bruell, President, Federal Way Symphony Board of Directors
