Ireceived the letter below a few minutes ago.
I am far from saying this approach should .... or even could .. be
mimicked/altered for PG, however I thought it might be interesting to
consider a PG variant and also offer a pleasant diversion to the Name
Change thread.

Letter below.

Thanks,
Mike Ellsworth
