In regards to your letter bethany, you should definately NEVER go to
http://members.aol.com/jdsletters/guest.html It's a collection of
letters to JD Salinger that the host of the web site
>> plans to put into a book and published.
i think that the fact that we on this list are expressing our disdain in
regard to this supposed book of letters is a fine sign. perhaps we can
put our voices together and let this moron know something. wouldn't that
be great? we could all team up, and suddenly this list would have a kind
of exhaulted purpose. no? what do you say? it disturbs the hell out of
me to think of people taking this 'letters to salinger' thing seriously.
maybe it's some kind of threat that couldn't have existed before the
internet. maybe we are like a collective superbenevolant protector come
down from on high with lightning in our fists, wasps for eyes, cape
woven from the fine hair of tarantulas, utility belt full of locusts,
with the legs of a goat and the head of goddam HORUS for chrissakes...
or does this sound like the bad guy? someone tell me to shut up, hey?
no. it really is disturbing. maybe it's because we all know there are
people out there who will buy into it. esp. impressionables. ug...
somebody wax mature and make a good point, not on behalf of the moron,
but just to sort of invoke reality; to distill the worry.
if not, let's talk about a way to take this guy out.
