I know you are joking, and this is even more off topic than the rest
of these postings, but this may be of interest to some people here (as
in the very least it is a funny story):

I especially like the quote:

Waldo, describing the experience later, wrote, "A member [of the
legislature] then showed the writer [i.e., Waldo] a copy of the bill
just passed and asked him if he would like an introduction to the
learned doctor, its author. He declined the courtesy with thanks,
remarking that he was acquainted with as many crazy people as he cared
to know."

Anyways, no one else seems to have brought it up...
