Dear Tribute,
About Dogma (Nov. 1999), Kevin
Courrier's remark that humor can help us get at bigger truths is right
on. Dogma brings up many embarrassing questions to those who have
inherited their faith and there are no better ways of introducing logic
and reason to the victims of blind faith.

Dear Tribute,
Liza Finlay doesn't do any research, does she? If she did, she would
know that the Pashmina or Shahtoosh shawl is made from the slaughter of
a rare and embattled animal. Each scarf equals the lives of several rare
antelope or chiru from Tibet and northern India. Nice fashion statement.
Carol Tomlinson
(The pashmina shawl,
a blend of silk and cashmere, is derived from Himalayan goats. The
animals are not killed in the process. As for the endangered chiru, our
information shows the animal is used to make shahtoosh wool, which is a
different material.)
Dear Tribute,
I have always enjoyed reading your publication.
I keep an eye out for each new issue when I go to the movies. However, I
must say that your horoscope page went from insight to tripe. What
happened? It used to be a fun read. I may not know what house Mercury is
in, but I know what house your horoscope page is currently in - the
outhouse! Please remedy this.

Dear Tribute,
I would like you to explain the following quote from an article in your
October 1999 issue: "The Story of Us is a movie that you can go and
see with your mom without fear of her seeing anyone's naughty parts.
Even better, you won't have to explain it to her." What kind of
sexist, patronizing, ageist attitude is this? Please, try to regard
mothers as more than decrepit and idiotic
in the future!

Dear Tribute,
I just wanted to thank you for doing an article on an actress who
deserves some attention. Of course, I'm talking about Angelina Jolie.
Not only is she a
talented actress who can bring out a character's
persona with a simple glance, she's also not afraid to tell all about
her lifestyle. It's refreshing to read about a Hollywood type who admits
to obsessing about lotion, collecting dangerous objects and branding
herself like a cow - and comes clean about her sexual preferences. She's
proven herself to be much more than a set of lips.
Courtney Babcock
Dear Tribute,
As a serious car nut, I really enjoy the Star Cars page. Although I
realize car collecting is largely a male preserve, how about looking
into the rides of some famous actresses in the future?
