Title: Men Of Letters
Post by Pete Atkin on Today at 10:34

It's a little immodest of me to post this kind of thing, but since no one else seems to have spotted it.... There's a collector's-item reference to Clive and me, and a couple of quotes, in To The Letter by Simon Garfield.

Simon joined the original e-mail list (http://www.peteatkin.com/mv/register.php) version of Midnight Voices in 2000. He doesn't appear in the current Forum membership list (http://www.peteatkin.com/cgi-bin/mv/YaBB.cgi?action=mlall).

Simon will have been exposed to several Pete concerts at University College School, so I'm not surprised at the reference appearing.

Now we just have to wait for Danny Finkelstein to slip similar references into the Prime Minister's speeches :)
