The Billy Letters
Says Radar Magazine (via Boing Boing):
"In the late '90s, pop-culture historian Bill Geerhart had a little too much time on his hands and a surfeit of stamps. So, for his own entertainment, the then-unemployed thirtysomething launched a letter-writing campaign to some of the most powerful and infamous figures in the country, posing as a curious 10-year-old named Billy."
Three of "Billy's" pen pals included the serial killers Richard Ramirez, the Unibomber and Charles Manson. While the first two feign sanity, Manson rambles incoherently and includes a picture of a random barn.
