I think we should meet in person （assuming that you are not sharing your consciousness to the collective）。 You are in NYC, correct? Happy to come to you sometime next week.

Dear Dolly Peale,
I was thrilled beyond belief to learn from your daughter, Lulu Kisarian, that you are willing to participate in a documentary about Kitty Jackson’s relationship with General B and its historic consequences. Now I’m wondering how many players from 2008 we can round up? I’m imagining you, Kitty, Lulu, the photographers who captured images of General B and Kitty together, and military and political experts who can speak to General B’s resulting pivot toward democracy.
What we’re missing is someone from General B’s circle who can describe events from that side. Might you be able to dig up your contacts from the former regime and see if any are still alive and reachable?
With best wishes, Ashleigh Avila
Lulu Kisarian→Ames Hollander
Dear Ames Hollander,
The journalist Jules Jones passed along your email. I understand you have a dry-cleaning business that specializes in removing deeply embedded stains. I have a friend in need of this type of cleaning. How can I put him in touch with you?
Awaiting your reply, Lulu Kisarian
Ames Hollander→Lulu Kisarian
Dear Lulu:
Please have your friend contact me via Mondrian, a more secure network that will make him jump through several hoops to ensure our communication is private.

Hi Ames, it’s Lulu Kisarian. How can my friend describe his dry-cleaning problem if he is being surveilled from within?
Ames→Lulu VIA MONDRIAN
Lulu, please advise your friend to CLOSE HIS EYES while typing out his dry-cleaning needs, and to press “send” BEFORE opening his eyes.

Dear Lulu,
I can absolutely help your friend with those stains, but I’m upstate and only in New York City a few days each month. My cleaning shop is hard to find, but since Jules has been there before, I will make the appointment directly with him. Please have your friend deal with Jules directly going forward.
Thanks for the referral!

Dear Bosky, long time. Belated thanks for the ice cream, which I look forward to each Xmas more than I like to admit. Not sure how your chocolate chips manage to be melty, not waxen. Ah, the wonders, the mysteries.
How is your health? Assuming good, I’m curious whether you might be in the market for a gonzo journalism caper involving travel, speedboats, and a movie icon who apparently knows all your lyrics. Thoughts?
Yours, JJ
Bosco→Jules
Health excellent. New hips and new knees have me feeling frisky. Lost 80 pounds in the past ten years, eat your heart out. This caper is expenses-paid I take it? Be fun to see you again, old man, even on a speedboat.
