 Le 
Loos Bullfinch, his wife Cellini, Arnold Rostand, Hulu Trollpe, his wife, Lulu, 
are Luchorpans who live in caves up on Luchorpan Mountain above our house. I see 
and talk with them from time to time. They are Little People about 15-24 inches 
tall. Le Loos is the ruler of all the Luchorpans who live up there. As a matter 
of fact, he is the President of all Luchorpan People all over the world. Many 
people other than me have seen indications (but have not actually seen) the Luchorpan 
People. Le Loos is approximately 5000 years old. Arnold has a dog named Armah.

 Part 
of the Burningtown News is true, a part is pure fiction which comes from the imagination 
of one of the editors. Sometimes the thought for the fiction comes from one of 
our staff members. The editors of the Burningtown News do not attempt to 
distinguish between truth and fiction although they are aware of which is which. 
It is up to the reader to discern what is being read and to choose for himself/herself 
what is true and what is not.
 "Most", sometimes, "all" 
of the news is true. So far there has not been an edition that is all "fiction" 
although there have been editions which were mostly fiction.
 This is not 
done in any attempt to mislead our subscribers but to increase understanding and 
ambiance between editors and readers.
 We hope you will understand. Fiction 
is described as being a "lie" in the dictionary but is also described 
as "an imaginative creation or a pretense that does not represent actuality 
but has been invented." It is also defined as being "a LITERARY work 
whose content is produced by the imagination and is not necessarily based on fact." 
Fiction in the Burningtown News fits the later definition.
 You must decide 
for yourself what is truth and what is fiction when it comes to the Burningtown 
News.
 The editors take no responsibility whatsoever for your decisions.
 Sometimes words will be misspelled. Sometimes there will not be any paragraphs 
and if there are they may not be in the right place. Punctuation will not always 
be correctly placed.
 It's the Burningtown News. Burningtown is a place where 
people are what they are.
 We do not have the time to correct every little 
error that is made. Errors you think are errors may be correctly stated the way 
we think. We hope you will forgive us when you see an error and consider that 
it is Burningtown News you are reading.
 WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE MISTAKES 
WHETHER ACCIDENTALLY OR INTENTIONALLY.
