The subjects of the "Pink Chicken Caper" -- and a welcome diversion for one Oregonian reader.

Pink chicken diversion: Regarding "The Buzz: Pink chickens are back in the roost," (March 28): His name should be shouted. His exploits extolled. Bruce Whitman did something worthy of international acclaim: He put pink chickens in trees on the waterfront. You think I'm being sarcastic? Well, I'm not. He provided us with a novel and cheerful diversion from the horrors on the news, especially from the Germanwings crash and the co-pilot who, like Whitman, sought recognition -- but in the most reprehensible manner. The co-pilot's name should be expunged from records; it should never have been published in the media.
