This Is This

Dear Sir/Madam,

In the third paragraph of today’s lead story on the front page of the Daily Telegraph, you mention the location of the shooting at the Amish school in Lancaster County.

I used to live on the edge of this county, and I can tell you that it is not “fifty five miles west of Pennsylvania”, as stated in the article.

Fifty five miles west of Pennsylvania would be Ohio. Nickel Mines in Lancaster County is fifty five miles west of Philadelphia.

Yours etc,

Cliff Jones

Nice people, the Amish. I’ll write about them sometime. Damn shame.
This bit didn’t go in the letter.

You know when you hear something you can tell where the sound is coming from? How come you can’t do that with a smell?
