dear they,

september 7, 2008 dear they, thank you for writing their book and for writing it in the way they did some really enjoyed it especially toward the middle when some began noticing the diseased cells entering their own blood some thought they would like to enjoy all books every single book and all names every single name not in the same way but in a similar way where the enjoyment is related to noticing diseased cells entering their own blood like when some see the name of a writer too conservative in form or a writer too conservative in feeling or a writer too conservative in lifestyle or a writer too conservative in other respects to be much liked these days by those who are the most fun to hang out with well some would like to think hey this writer who is a writer too conservative in form or a writer too conservative in feeling or a writer too conservative in lifestyle or a writer too conservative in other respects is not so bad and trying to make something neat and enjoyable and useful and even if it is in some sense complicit with capital hey when is that not the case and hey isn't it not really that writer who is to blame exactly not because of their parents exactly or their genes exactly but rather the larger forces that have bequeathed them a world of experiences and also the other two the parents and the genes might count somewhat also some think it's maybe right to think of another writer who wrote a number of books in the 1970s that explained how thoroughgoing those types of larger forces are and how in fact nothing is bequeathing them a world of experiences but how in fact they are rather created out of that world of experiences bequeathed not to them but in general by those larger forces and how finally limited their ability to recognize or resist those forces finally is well some think it's maybe right to think of this writer who wrote a number of books in the 1970s when some dislike or dismiss or bark at or even just have a very slight irritated reaction to a person even when that person is a writer too conservative in form or a writer too conservative in feeling or a writer too conservative in lifestyle or a writer too conservative in other respects especially because oftentimes some dislike or dismiss or bark at or even just have a very slight irritated reaction to not the person or to the work but sometimes just to the name of the writer too conservative in form or too conservative in feeling or too conservative in lifestyle or too conservative in other respects because of their belief in a particular idea or group that some think lowers the world's ok-ness or because their work affirms in a clear way a particular idea or group that some think lowers the world's ok-ness or because their work affirms in a not very clear way a particular idea or group that some think lowers the world's ok-ness or because their work does not disaffirm in a clear way a particular idea or group that some think lowers the world's ok-ness or because
