Don't be a nervous Nellie; I'm sending it out today and if you don't write- hell- unclear - one third of your issue to it, what kind of a magazine have you got anyway? The gang here likes it and I hope you do. Of course I'm seeing to it that the gang Rebel Punks get copies - JoJo, H.H. and what have you...
