Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

Hope you get help with your diagnosed mental disorders.

This is the proper link

You'll have to cut and paste it into the address window (adding the www. at the front).


Mr Bergquist: Stop using drugs, and get help.

edited because I realised that the site automatically makes a hyperlink, but shortens it to make it incorrect...doh!!

No politician (or newspaper editor for that matter) has time to read such a rambling letter. You need to focus on one issue and be very clear about what you want the person you are writing to to do for you.

I'm not sure you even ask him to investigate? Perhaps it's in there somewhere but (like a politician) I didn't have time or inclination to read it all, just the first and last few paragraphs.

In the UK I found it best to write to my MP asking them to pose a specific question to the department concerned. They did so and I had my answer back via my MP in about two weeks.

The point being that _all_ my MP had to do was pass on my question. He didn't have to wade through pages of stuff he had no interest in and that wasn't going to get him any votes.

What an awfully long letter. Nearly as big as American egos!

Are you writing a letter or your memoirs?

get to the point man.

Look at the address of the author:

Chicken Little?


PT:ugh:

Thanks Guys

wish i hadn't asked

Reads more like the ramblings of the village idiot.

I want a time machine so I can go back and fly a P47 in WWII with his old man.

Imagine sipping from a flask of brandy while you attack Nazi ammo trains in eastern France.


He is nuts.

James

If you're serious about aviation safety you first need to hire someone to handle your communications. Letters like that will do more harm than good, buddy

Whatever other deficiancies George Bush may have, he recognises a nutter when he sees one, and has had the common sense not to encourgae Chicken Little to use pens, pencils or other sharp objects..........

Chickenlittle,

One more time, What is wrong with the system?

:{ :{ :{ :{

Sounds like someone escaped their padded room.

James,

Hate to say it, but I'm inclined to agree with many of the views here. Over the last few years I've seen you write a fair number of epic 'open' letters to White House dignitaries and I've yet to see any results from your efforts.

The tragedy is, of course, that you might be right. And one day, after a ghastly accident, we might read through one of your letter-cum-novels and know that you saw it coming and were trying to warn us.

But your approach to the matter is all wrong and it just trashes your credibility as surely as if you'd postmarked your letter at the local asylum.

You also might want to rethink the "chicken little" email address. Chicken Little believed that the sky was collapsing after an acorn fell on his head, and went around spreading his over-reaction and paranoia to the rest of the farm.

Not the best way to be taken seriously, if you ask me.

Chicken Little,

No doubt some of your points are very valid, but OH MY GOD:oh: PRESENTATION!!

Pick a theme and stick to it. Ranting and digression will get you absolutely nowhere:ooh:

can someone tell me what he said?

(too lazy to read it)
