LIFE
Dear Sirs:
For the past several years we have been receiving volumes of Life World, Science, Nature, Libraries and Great Ages of Man. I have always been impressed by the content and illustrations of yours books and treat them as I would a scientific text-book.
I have just finished reading two books by Immanuel Uelikovsky "Worlds in Collision" and "Earth in Upheaval". In these works, the author puts forth the theory of global catastrophes, updates the end of the Ice Age to 3, 500 years ago, disputes Darwin's theory of natural selection and attributes documented global catastrophes to extraterrestrial sources.
It would appear that Mr. U's opinions, which were expressed in 1950, are every day being substantiated by archeological and geological evidence. If this is the case why is his theory not incorporated in your volumes, which still deal with 25, 000 year old ice ages?
As a housewife with small children I must rely almost completely on your volumes for [...] information. If my acceptance of this theory is wrong please correct me, as I am greatly concerned that a view which apparently caused such an uproar in scientific circles was discounted by publishers with your reputation for-
Make no mention of the mounds of extinct mammal bones associated with remains of Bronze Age man discovering buried under tons of uprooted forests?

Beppe
Today I was making zucchini bread and Dad called Beppe to say that I was baking again because he thought she should know. She was pretty excited, and asked if I was going to eat it with butter. I said sometimes. She also asked if I was still on a diet. She meant the vegetarian diet. I said no. Opa asked from the chair with a cookie in his mouth if I had a boyfriend yet. She said he said it was about time to have one. I said not until school was finished. Beppe said Allen said the same thing once. And then, after school, he did find someone- she trailed off. But he did get married and stuff. Anyway, the zucchini loaf turned out well, but I ran out of sugar so it's not too sweet. I like it. Dad was slightly shocked at first then he said he really like it and had another piece. I also made apple koek. More like apple brood. Bread, not cake, I mean.
