Obscene Mail Backfires for Nonprofit

Edith Cruise called to tell me someone named Dan Savage had mailed her a pornographic letter.

“Do you know who he is?” Cruise asked me.

Uh, yeah, I do. Savage is a journalist who writes a sex and relationship column called "Savage Love." People write to him for advice, but Dear Abby he is not. I couldn’t for the life of me understand why Savage would write to Cruise.

“What’s it say?” I asked with a tinge of incredulity.
