You know I am a secretary - they don't pay me enough to call me an Administrative Assistant! - for any number of professors. A few years ago I was responsible for sending a letter to Purdue from one of them. He had typed it, signed it and asked me to do an envelope and send it.
I scanned it, and was stopped cold by this:
"My wife and I are so happy to contribute are money for such a worthy cause."
I couldn't change it, I had to put it in the envelope with the check and send it. Purdue probably didn't care, they got money from him.

But I was horrified.
