Armed to the Teeth

Ralph Martin is absolutely correct about the proper way for male high school science teachers to roll up their sleeves ("Techniques for Sleeve Rolling"). Some people think these things don't matter. Those of us with standards know they do. Thank you, Ralph Martin.

Arms Race

My fellow science teachers and I are fascinated by Ralph Martin. He is absolutely correct about techniques for rolling up sleeves. Enclosed please our own research report into the subject. It is admittedly lengthy, but we feel and feel you will agree that the quality of the writing makes up for that. Please tell us which issue you will publish it in. We are sending you our data and photographs and biographies separately. Please give us free subscriptions. We read your magazine all the time.

Not by Bread Alone

To the editor:

The ongoing debate about nocturnal reactions to poppy seeds can be easily settled. I urge readers to consult footnote #17 of my monograph on a peripheral topic, "Fourier Analysis of the Slicing of Wheat Bread" (unpublished).

Infinite Series

This is my fourth letter to you on this subject. I have never submitted anything to be published in your journal. If I receive one more rejection letter from you I shall take legal action.
