Pinch-hitting on Sound Off

I've returned to my roots this past week in The Californian newsroom, playing daily editor in backstopping the vacationing John Arthur. 

With that editor role comes the privilege of publicly responding to reader complaints, compliments and other feedback in our Sunday Sound Off column. I used to write Sound Off regularly when I was The Californian's managing editor, but these days it's a gig that comes around just a few times a year. 

This edition of Sound Off is typical, responding to two readers' completely different takes on our recent series on foreign doctors, questions about our priorities in sports, and suggestions on our sourcing on healthcare coverage.
