I think that a book is a good idea so I'll chip in some thoughts...
You must include the crazy Bondesque guy that pined for the old love that he had located after many years. This is the guy that swam the bay, ran drugs TO Canada (Ya, that was the tip off that something was fishy) and came into great question by almost every reader of the column. I still think that he was a fake but the letter and the response made for a great read.
I also remember the letter from the mom that fought her back-woods upbringing in favour of a more liberal and hopefully enlightened future in a far away city only to find that her son who she was estanged from was embracing the past that she ran from.
Come to think of it Cary any letter that I have posted a response to obviously moved me to do so. I think that the majority of them would be good additions to a book. Feel free to add a reader response portion of your book as well. I come cheap - an autographed copy and a fab weekend in San Fran would suit me just fine.
Good luck with the book. I love that we live in a time where you can self publish in a way that will keep you and your wife true to yourselves while (hopefully) making a decent buck.
Cheers,
Jayne
