To the editor: In “The Sound of Music,” the lovable architect of the escape of the Von Trapp family, Uncle Max, quipped, “I like rich people. I like the way they live, and I like the way I live when I’m with them.”
According to a recent L.A. Times story, this is not true of coyotes. Where the well-off domicile, coyotes are less likely to be found. There are legions of miniature poodles, Chihuahuas and French bulldogs that applaud this ethic.
And I would like to say that this has nothing to do with the Oerlikons mounted on the pool cabana balconies.
