Summary: Christmas (Press, 4 January 1986)
In a letter published on 4 January 1986, Kenneth Schollar responds to Mr Gardner's criticisms regarding his contributions to literary discussions, suggesting that a bit of frivolity or "nonsense" is often appreciated, even by the wisest individuals. Schollar defends himself and his fellow correspondents, including Mr Mulcock, asserting that their letters have never incited violence or contributed to societal issues such as crime, political failures, or legislative changes, including the introduction of the Goods and Services Tax (GST). He dismisses any notion that his writings have interfered with the lives of others, stating that Mr Gardner's beliefs on the matter are misguided. Schollar concludes his letter by affirming his right to engage in light-hearted literary exchanges as he approaches his eighties.
