Ramon, We Hardly Knew Ye

A correction, and some Top 10s

Oops: In our otherwise impeccable and hilarious Beside the Point: Top 10 council highlights, an editing error changed former city Council Member Raul Alvarez's name to Ramon Alvarez (though, to whomever's credit, Ramon Alvarez is an oft-quoted Texas air-quality expert.) The Chronicle deeply regrets the error.

Whilst on the subject of Top 10s, here's the whole sordid list:

Top 10 Quotes of the Week

Top 10 Local Stories

Top 10 State Stories

Reefer Madness: Top 10 joints

Media Watch: Whoring is boring

Top 10 Developing Stories

Top 10 APD Stories

The Legislature's Top 10 Alternatives to Abortion

Beside the Point: Top 10 council highlights

And lastly, one off-site bonus: The 10 most outrageous civil liberties violations of 2006.
