Hi Medwolf, thanks for the David Zack mail-art. I blogged it along with an update on the official MinXus-Lynxus David Zack Disappearance Investigation. Confidential sources are coming forward. Looks like you were right:
If I were to talk to the moon I would say~well hmmm my statement would be "is David Zack really??" he was an early mail artist and no one seems to know or care where his spirit sleeps or if in fact he is deadand has been misplaced but no matter he should be found and his where abouts made known so that mail artists today can have the choice of visiting or creating an offering site or shrine in his honor as should be done with the resting places of all great mail artists who have taken that last step in this life and gone on to the other side where they now dance with the stars and drink water from the big dipper...and I have been asking the mail art circle "is he really ?? and did he surrender that day in Mexico or did they take his old rusty truck and make it surrender..and why is it all now a big secret?" David Zack was one of our own...a door opener when mail art wore the clothes of a young artist...and he unlike other greats such as Ray Johnson..is MIA and some of us would simply like to know..is he really??
Do you have any of Zack's Correspondense Novel folios? Also, did you ever have
any exchanges with DJ at FOMT? Always digging, unearthing, unworldly. What's with
that Sounds of Silence in the background? Just wrote and recorded a new tune today
"Emancipate Freedom" Freedom is a dirty word, they drag it through the mud/They take it to the mountaintop, inject it like a drug/This overdose of freedom, you die the patriot/When politicians trade the trick, then freedom's just a slut
Interested in a CD?

Thanks Medwolf, this actually well known and as fine a piece of writing as you could hope for from someone who clearly could not draw, as the piece Leigh posted (that has now disappeared) indicated.
I do not know the context of the message. I understand you are pointing to the consistency of April 1 in the messages, but I think the joke ended up being on him in the sense that we are here and accounted for. He is not.
Thanks for this - I'll add it to the blog because I know it's authentic.

Hello Saskatchewan...I'm originally from Quebec...expect to be busy here.
Thanks for letting me know that the Zack/Croce piece arrived safely. I have been away from IUOMA for a while as REAL-LIFE encroached on my time... L
Hi dear friend,
Thanks for the wonderful mailart. I'll be sending you something back very soon. I'm now working with birch bark, maple leaves and Autumn photographs.
Love, Wilma

Medwolf, I got this great envelop of stuff from you, I'll get something out to you shortly.

thank you Cracker...his words are as I remember them..I am thinking about phone conversations you may have had in 1994~95 while he was in Texas??
MoZackhere,
Great correspondence novelists move from one world to the next with hardly the wiggle of an eyebrow.
