Dear Dr. Asimov:
Enclosed, please find a copy of a letter by your friend, John W.
Campbell to me. It was written in response to a letter I wrote to him
when I was nineteen. I was taking him to task about his editorial in
the April 1971 issue of Analog. My letter is also enclosed.
I was reminded of this correspondence as I read your autobiography in
which you described your first political disagreement with Campbell. I
went and dug through my moldering files and found my letter and his
intact.
I'm sending copies to you in case you have some sort of archival use
for such things.
By the way, I appreciate your good work advancing humanism.
Sincerely,
(signed naturally) Tom Cole
