Long Live Bureaucrats

I am writing to declare that this will be the last letter I will write to the Salient until you or a successor of yours quit refusing to print handwritten letters. The fact that you acting on your own miniscule authority, are restricting letters to those written only by people with time and typing ability to type their letters, is almost as great an infringement of individual rights as restricting abortions to those who can afford to fly to Australia.

I graduated from the railways Dept before coming to this establishement. Your action is worse than the greatest manifestations of bureaucracy I witnessed there. In your petty attempt to to make things easier for your own operation, at the cost of making things difficult for those you are supposed to serve, you are out bureaucrating the bureaucrats!

P.S. If my one man boycott has no effect or if this (hand-written) letter is not printed, expect to find me below the Salient Window throwing typewriters up at it, to continue my protest.

(Make sure they've got new ribbons in them—Ed.)
