With regard to the "offensive" name of Lake Calhoun ("Could 'chain of lakes' be Isles, Harriet -- Humphrey?", May 21). Why not just cut to the chase? It should quite simply be renamed Lake PC. Problem solved.

Let's take a tip from the Metropolitan Airports Commission and change the names of Lake Calhoun and Lake Harriet to Lake 1 and Lake 2.DAVID CARPENTER, MINNEAPOLIS
