Letter: Reader asks is ‘chalked full’ now ‘white-board-markered full’?

Editor, The Friday Flyer:

In your Feb. 19 issue, your headline article “POA hears from its members,” the first paragraph says in part, “That two-hour meeting was chalked full of member comment and discussion…”

I would point out that the expression “chalked full” is incorrect and obsolete, supplanted by the more modern (albeit arguably racist) form “white-board-markered full.”

— George Fourmyle
