C O M 7 Letters to the Editor Mysteries Magazine: Not Just About UFOs Dear Mysteries, ust wanted to say I’ve enjoyed thor- oughly the first three issues of Mys- Jteries Magazine, and am impressed with the content and production. I’m very pleased that material is covered from a level-headed, responsible approach, and that every other story isn’t about the latest UFO nonsense. Keep up the great work! —MILTON JOHN KLEIM, JR.
