    Just curious...

    Has anyone ever had a success in which the person you sent to actually sat down and wrote you a letter back? If so, who?

    The longest letter I have ever received back was written by Bob Will (former Cub). He hand wrote 2 pages. Robin Yount, Phil Niekro, and Fred Lynn have all wrote letters back to me.

    There have been quite a few. The best were:

    - Tony Conigliaro sent me a Christmas Card.
    - Joe Sewell wrote me a letter talking about rooming with Lou Gehrig on road trips.

    The first time I had anything like that was a very long time back. It was with the first group of mailings I ever did. I used to hand write and fill every other line of my letters back then. I was a young kid and had asked him a good number of questions. He had taken the time to answer all my questions in between the lines I had written and mailed it back with my card signed. I have had a few since, but still have that first letter.
