readily 'agree with me that this next story is frighteningly

plausible.

PLEASE DO NOT FOLD, SPINDLE

OR MUTILATE THIS CARD

Mr: Walter A. Child Balance: $4.98

Dear Customer: Enclosed is your latest book selection.

Dear Sirs:

I wrote you recently about the computer punch card you

sent, billing me for "Kim," by Rudyard Kipling. I did not open

the package containing it until I had already mailed you my

check for the amount on the card. On opening the package, I

found the book missing half its pages. I sent it back to you,

requesting either another copy or my money back. Instead, you

have sent me a copy of "Kidnapped," by Robert Louis

Stevenson. Will you please straighten this out?

I hereby return the copy of "Kidnapped."

Sincerely yours,

Walter A. Child

May I direct your attention to my letter of November 16,

Dear Mr. Child:

We have sent you a number of reminders concerning an

amount owing to us as a result of book purchases you have

made from us. This amount, which is $4.98, is now long

overdue.

This situation is disappointing to us, particularly since there

was no hesitation on our part in extending you credit at the

time original arrangements for these purchases were made by

you. If we do not receive payment in full by return mail, we will

be forced to turn the matter over to a collection agency.

Very truly yours,

Samuel P. Grimes

Dear Mr. Grimes:

Will you stop sending me punch cards and form letters and

make me some kind of a direct answer from a human being?

/ don't owe you money. You owe me money. Maybe I should

turn your company over to a collection agency.
