 A WORD IN EDGEWISE

Written and published as a personal newsletter and commentary by Dick H. Fredericksen, 77 Jefferson Ave., White Plains, N.Y. 10606.

No subscription necessary (or even possible). I've got things I want to say; also a list of public figures I want to proselytize, adversaries I want to twit, friends I want to keep in touch with, and long-suffering relatives. When the Muse whispers and the budget allows, they'll all get copies.

Some people used to complain about my subscription policy. They grumbled that if I didn't accept subscriptions, they couldn't cancel theirs in protest. I hate to see anyone go away mad, so nowadays I enclose a handy protest coupon.

Dear Mr. Fredericksen:

I realize you are a hard-working breadwinner and can't
afford to waste your money on lunkheads who fail to
appreciate your wit and wisdom, so please take me off your
mailing list.
