Subject: RE>Humor, Dr. Suess
To Richard Dimock <red -at- ELSEGUNDOCA -dot- ATTGIS -dot- COM> et al.:
Thank you for posting the "Humor, Dr. Suess." I quite enjoyed it, as did others
in my office.
As a fellow newbee (having lurked for a week or so before sending my first
list-wide post earlier today), I've read several posts which bandied about the
authorship of the Suess poem. None of the posts contained the original verses,
though, so I was feeling left out of the loop.
In light of the flame recently thrown your way, however, I'm sure glad I
*didn't* send out the post I *wanted* to send days ago to ask for someone to
re-post the poem for me! Ouch--I would've been burnt toast... Thanks for taking
the fire for me.
