Army of Activists

I’m half Indian but born American (I guess that would make me a third Indian because one of my parents is American). I’m a total Star Wars geek. Did you know that one First Order Star Destroyer holds 8,000 stormtroopers but 19,000 officers? Or that the Rebel Alliance was headed by Mon Mothma but founded by Bail Organa (who was killed by the Empire)?

I’m a climate change activist and have done a speech to the New York Comptroller and the Teachers Retirement Pension Fund. I would love it if you did an issue on climate change. It is a pressing issue. It is my belief that if there are enough activists, climate change will be stopped!

My favorite issue (as of July 2018) is the July/August 2018 since I got it in March. If you do not publish my letter, I will send my secret fleet of Star Destroyers from my top-secret station on Mars to attack offices!! Anyone who reads this has my confidence and must not disclose this secret base to anybody.
