			Werber and Rogell were friends of mine.  Werber could always write a good letter, as seen here.  
 Bartell suffered from Alzehimer's for many years.  That letter was actually typed by his wife, who I also knew, but signed by Bartell himself.  Charging for autographs was her idea because it took a lot out of Dick to do it in his condition.  Also, she seemed extremely fixated on money any time she wrote me or whenever we spoke on the phone--not just money for autographs, but money in general.
