Three Rotarians gave their opinions on a series of topics at a Rotary Current Events Panel held last week when questions on major issues were the topics on the menu.  Topics covering political issues, both local and stateside, (Carmen Yulin, Donald Trump, Brett Cavanaugh) to more mundane issues (favorite restaurant, favorite local agency (if any), and the nitty gritty of life in Puerto Rico.  The panelists, consisting of Dr. Norman Maldonaldo, John Richardson and Pat Schneider, were happy to give their measured thoughts on all the areas covered.  Good job, Sherman Wildman, on this innovative program.
