  17. Dear Pete,
  18.  
  19. Shane is no longer a Pogue.  He quit the band due to alcohol-related 
  20. problems and has been replaced by Joe Strummer of the Clash.  Personally, 
  21. although I really like the Clash, I don't think there's any way that 
  22. Strummer will hold a candle to Shane.
  23.
