The Letter to Top All Letters

Is it really necessary to give all that space to narrow-minded, sexually uptight people who write to cancel their subscriptions (Queries & Comments, BAR 14:01)?

The letter from Frank and Jean Sandford of Wells, Maine, really tops the cake: After slapping your face and insulting your judgment, they have the nerve to ask for a free issue in the event you print their letter. I can’t believe their stupidity.

I love all your articles. And I look forward to going on one of your sponsored digs someday!

How anyone could cancel their subscription and ask for a free copy in the same letter has got to be the most incredibly funny letter to the editor of all time.

I have come to the conclusion that your editors have a highly developed sense of humor. Otherwise, how could they tolerate all the critical comments regarding the “morals” of an archaeological magazine.
