Editor:

I just finished reading Tom Fletcher's B.C. Views column "Avatar Sequel Bombs in Walbran" (Victoria News, , follow-up commentary ) and I'm left with two questions.

My first question: did Fletcher used to ghost-write the columns that appeared in the ? If so, he was much funnier when he was "pig-biting mad" about immigrants, vegetarians or people who speak languages he can't understand.

My second question: does Fletcher know where 20 per cent of the Earth's oxygen comes from? (Hint, it is not produced by the logging industry.)

Maybe somebody could send him a memo informing him that trees produce oxygen and it's kind of, um, you know, important and stuff. Trees do more than that, but we'll keep it simple to start.

Jakob Derkson, Victoria
