I wouldn't wish Alan Keyes on anyone, but I certainly did this one, AT MY OLD JOB, which I've quit. Anyway, I wonder if they'll recognize my sarcasm... heh. I used a fake name, of course, so that the Academy doesn't come after me. Because that would be no fun.

Anyway, this is the e-mail I've sent:

Dear Carla:

I write to suggest that Alan Keyes come to speak at our office on Managerial Ethics. I work at the San Francisco Academy of Art University (in San Francisco, of course), located at 79 New Montgomery.

I believe that such a speech would be valuable to the morale of the office, the strength of the school, its ability to produce better and more socially conscious artists, and of course, to the ethics of the managment in the office, which, at the moment, may be skewed towards producing better artists instead of focusing purely on the acquisition of as much money as possible.

Furthermore, the Academy, both in its student body and administration, seems to me to be a haven for wrongthinking liberals, who believe in the power of art and peace to aid in the defeat of social problems, who value social justice, equality, and freedom of choice and identity over national security, money, and the calming power of prayer. I fear that a decent number may even be homosexual, "goth," or otherwise nonconformist and freethinking. Alan Keyes does not have any of their problems, and I think his coming to visit the city of San Francisco could be an eye-opening event.

I am copying this e-mail to Carla Michele's e-mail directly.

Thank you so much,

Sincerely,

Alan Pieces
