Editor’s Note: When Ted B<strong>at</strong>kin was moving to his new<br />

office on Encina, he found this letter. He had discovered<br />

it years earlier in the CRB files <strong>and</strong>, realizing th<strong>at</strong> it was<br />

something quite special, had carefully preserved it. The composition<br />

is by the l<strong>at</strong>e Allen Hardison, who wrote it during his first year of<br />

service on the <strong>Citrus</strong> <strong>Research</strong> Board. He was famous – <strong>and</strong> well<br />

respected by his colleagues – for being a “devil’s advoc<strong>at</strong>e” in the<br />

finest sense. In virtually every meeting, he asked pointed questions<br />

to make sure all aspects of a situ<strong>at</strong>ion had been considered, <strong>and</strong> his<br />

approach ensured a full deb<strong>at</strong>e. Hardison represented District 2 for<br />

15 years, from 1987-88 through 2001-2002.<br />
