The question really made me think. In my case it is almost a non issue because I didn't think much of those letters until I started reading the LTA and LT material a good 6 months "in the team".

That's why I would have asked the question the other way around but it's unimportant now. I think that people who had read a little bit before joining (I was a couple of years older than the average 19 y.o. at the time) felt different about those writings. Sort of what we now feel when reading the maria letters, lots of hogwash. I did like "Holy Holes" and still do. It may be one of the few original witings but still another brainwashing repetitive tool as others have pointed out.

What I found strange, and still wonder, is his involvement in political issues, such as the Kadaffi letter and the state of the world letter, etc. He didn't know anything about politics or world affairs.
