The Crimson received a copy of this letter from a Cambridge child to Santa because the child's mother wants the child to be famous. The child's name is being withheld. Dear Santa:
I am a precocious three-year old on the make, and I'm writing to you with the intention of having my letter printed in magazines and newspapers across the country and becoming famous.
Although I am only three, I have already learned to read and write fluently in several languages, I can drive a stick-shift, and I am a recently-appointed member of Jimmy Carter's transition team. My father is a nuclear physicist, my mother is a nuclear physicist.
I doubt that you exist. Sincerely, Name and address withheld.
The Editors of the Crimson reply:
In the future, please address all correspondence "To the Editors of the Crimson." We regret that we cannot respond to letters addressed to third parties.
