I’ve seen numerous versions-the first an email supposedly from an Ivy League school. This was just the first one that came up on a search. Thanks for the link. I don’t think I’ve seen the original before.

Very gracious of you. The Mr. “Yaw”, to whom Mr. Edwards was “responding”, was George Bernard Shaw, who had suggested some modest reforms to English orthography. I am inordinately fond of modest proposals.
