I rather enjoyed this typo in Luke's correspondence with the Man:

      "Only the most alliterate dullard is not aware of and does not
respect Mr.
      Salinger's desire for privacy."

Thanks for the link, Camille.  The exchange is brief, but interesting
indeed.  It seems to follow the same trajectory in miniature as
Hamilton's narrative does in _In Search_--a spirited and earnest appeal
to the warm heart beating somewhere inside that steel, fireproof chest,
turning to a reluctant relinquishment.  Luke's respect and goodwill
stays far short of Hamilton's bitterness and resent, but I see in both
their encounters a little bit of the same experience.  It's difficult to
reconcile Buddy with Salinger.

I wondner whether the exchange is represented in its entirety.
