Mail to Roland Halbritter - Germany
My mail to Roland Halbritter (Germany) arrived. Seems he was irritated by the colour xeroxes of the Ray Johnsons Interview I did years ago. He wondered what it should mean to him. It was just a chance to see how Ray reacted to questions. To me they were then very interesting. See : http://socks-stockings.blogspot.com/ for his reaction. Ray didn't took questions seriously, but in a way took them the way they were. There was an obvious play, an in the Mail-Interview with Norman Solomon (see: http://www.iuoma.org/postcard.html ) they were analyzed by this close friend of Ray. So for the complete picture it is very usefull in my eyes.
