>Still too much?
Anything more than 80 characters is to much... It could be convenient for
a computer with lines of more than 80 characters, but it makes it difficult
to read (fast) for a human.
>I must be missing a joke about my bad English.
Eh, not exactly that... It just sounded a bit funny that it was re-arranged
(and butchered) once, and then re-arranged again, instead of just using the
original version.
I didn't mean to make jokes about anyone's language. I'm probably the last
one who should do that...

I remember a story which could fit that title, but I don't think it's D-coded,
but rather T-coded. Donald have problems falling asleep, and calls up Fethry
to ask him if he knows a simple cure. Instead of just answering, Fethry comes
over to Donald's house. In the last panel, we see a part of the city, from
above, where Donald is chasing Fethry around.

No need to hurry. I've already got two...
>If you can talk to Stefan Printz-Pahlson...
Now that you mention him -- what is he doing except for writing scripts?
Is he Swedish or Danish?
Now I should fix a couple of mistakes I've made in earlier letters.
Me, to Don:

This should have been "Nobody's Business", not "Cash Flow".
Me:
>Fethry's first appearance in Norway was in 1963, BTW.
That should have been 1965.
