[Dan'l Danehy-Oakes]

Assuming that William agreed, I'd be delighted to put it into some kind of
usable form.

Does anyone have a current eddress for him?

Soon, where Toon Town once stood will be a string of gas stations,
inexpensive motels, restaurants that serve rapidly prepared food. Tire
salons, automobile dealerships and wonderful, wonderful billboards
reaching as far as the eye can see. My God, it'll be beautiful.
