My God! Somebody remembers those! Though I grew up reading
comics, I never wrote an LOC. Actually the letters that wound
up in MS. TREE's letter column
(called SWAK! if memory serves) were personal letters to Al
that he coopted for use in the comic book.
"Feverish but always interesting." Hmmmm. I'll take it as a
compliment.
