Dear Rodney:

Sorry that we haven't been able to get in touch.  I remember what
you said about making plans to meet with people when you got out of
the service, and that you were disappointed that it never worked
out.

For a number of reasons my lifestyle makes telephoning a bit of a
difficulty.  As telephoning has not proven itself a consistantly
reliable method of contacting you I am abandoning it.

Plaease believe me, there are a great many things I would find more
pleasant to do other spend my time here in this Park trying to
arrive at a concensus on morality with a possibly materialistic
society.  But, I guess, somebody's got to do it.  In any event
that's the reason that I haven't been able to get over to your
house.

It seems that I've been carrying this Aquarian Gospel around with
me for a couple of weeks now.  As it also appears that we might
never meet it seemed best just to send it to you.

Should you care to maintain contact I can be reached by amil at the
above address.

                          Your friend,

                             

                             Thomas
