# Just for kicks, I mailed this letter.

To the offices of General Mills cereal,

Hello and good day, I am a regular consumer of your fine breakfast cereals such as Trix, Lucky Charms, and many other delightful General Mills foods. For about fifteen years now I have promised myself to eat at least one bowl of cereal per month, and I can happily say I am a healthier, leaner me because of it.

However, in recent times I have become worried about something, and I have started to avoid one of your finest confections...specifically Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

You see, by a strange fluke of tradition I was given the birthname Simon Toast Crunch. (Yes, that is my real name in all honesty). I have been afraid, however, to sign it as my name for fear of copyright infringement against your establishment. Currently I am using the pseudonym Wallace Hobthrot, but I would like to be able to call myself by my legal name again. My sister says my assumed name makes me sound like some sort of Hobbit! But I haven't got hairy feet (well, maybe a little).

I would most appreciate your opinion on this matter.

Sincerely yours,
-To be decided-

P.S. I have never met General Mills, what war did he fight in?

it sounds like you have either already read this, or you would like it.

# Just read your profile
I live right next to a town/village called Belmont just south of London, in answer to your question.

I always thought it was just a combination of belfast and montville, but that seemed strangely silly for a town founded a few hundred years ago. Maine does have clever names like "the presumpscot river" and "cat mousam road".
