To Mike Regenstreif:

Mike, m'lad, if I'd known you were the author, I'd have given proper credit. I saw the note only as it was appended (without your name attached) to the reply that added: That's okay, as long as you weren't talking on a cell phone in your car at the same time" (or words to that effect). That's a great piece of writing, Mike! You oughta forward it to SING OUT! I think Mark Moss would love it, too. I'd even suggest contributing it to "Life in these United States" at Reader's Digest, but for the fact that you're in Canada and the editors of Reader's Digest wouldn't understand your point at all.

I see you're gonna have Rick Fielding on your show next month. Be sure to remind all these Mudcatters when it's gonna happen. They'll sure want to tune in.
