Here is the business address of today's entreaty: ENERGY NATIONAL RESOURCE ORGANIZATION OF COTE D IVOIRE From: Dr.Musa Abubakar Office of E.N.R.O.N. Director. Arthur Andersen is mentioned in the body of the letter. I'm hard-pressed to determine whether this is deliberate satire or a (dis)honest attempt to capitalize on notoriety, since it contains the usual request for bank numbers and confidentiality.
Treat your bank as it treats you: an advisory letter from a dissatisfied customer. I'm not sure I have the courage to send it to my bank, but it sure as hell is funny.
I think the Gettysburg Address is stirring, and one of America's best examples of political oratory. I have been puzzled by its inclusion during commemorations of 9/11. Safire makes the case. I still wonder why none of our current politicians (and their speechwriters) have felt compelled to find their own voices in original language.
