Soci. and Psych. professors were very complimentary and appreciative. The Soci. professor had stuck through three consecutive hours and classes with me so I guess I had him pretty well brainwashed.

The previous day I had gone to the Seattle Times to see if they would like to do an interview and told them about the classes so I was pleased to see that they had sent a reporter over to the Psych class and the next day we got a write-up in the paper.

I managed to put TVia into two different bookstores so we can be more easily "found" in Seattle. I also spent about an hour with the editor of another TV publication there and ascertained that his main activity is his correspondence club and that he makes no attempt to limit it to any one kind of person though he does try to exclude the obvious nuts and pornographic types. But it was clear that our two points of view were quite different. As a member of the older generation I have been through all the hell that most of you have and thus my original purpose was to try to alleviate as much of this as I could for others by way of education and enlightenment and promoting self acceptance. I was (and still am) primarily concerned about people like myself. He, being much younger, is a product of a much more acceptant society - the "do your own thing" era. Thus he need not be so concerned either with enlightenment and acceptance or with limit- ing his efforts to the straight TV (FP). But it takes all kinds and I bear him no ill will.

I must take this way of expressing a sort of mass "thank you" to all those who not only contributed to my transportation expense but who, through their hospitality of various kinds, driving me to various appoint- ments, taking me to dinner, etc., did so much to make my visit to the Pacific NW not only very pleasurable but, hopefully, useful too.

When I got home from Seattle on a Sunday afternoon I found a long distance call from Chicago waiting for me. It turned out that WLS-TV, a show I'd done a 15 minute segment with last December was starting up a new show and the producer was kind enough to say that they wanted to start it off with the best of their former guests and would I help them get it under way. I was complimented and as they were going to pick up the tab I naturally said yes. So after three days at home again
