> Hello all,

>
>
> An odd question this. Today we recived
> through the post a letter on which our address was just about correct
> (enough, obviously, to get here). It was sent from Gatwick, and inside
> the
> envelope was nothing but a piece of card cut from a cereal box - it looks
> like 'All Bran'. On the back of the card is written, in block capital
> letters:
>
> You should of course be circumspect in
> adding to that long line of books purporting or implying that "investment
> in
> shares" is a secure hedge against inflation.
>
>
>
> Beneath this, in big block capital red
> letters is says:
>
> Reading can seriously damage your health
>
>
>
> Now, while this is in its own little way
> quite amusing, its also slightly strange and has got a couple of the staff
> here a little worried, and I just wondered if any other libraries had
> recieved such enigmatic mail like our letter? Anyone?
