Dear Editor,

A community announcement:

We regret to inform that future supplies of Havidol cannot be guaranteed. Extensive clinical trials conducted in Australia and the United States from 1997 to 2007 have revealed side effects, including but not limited to: higher than normal temperature; dehydration; extreme wind; loss of energy; rising fluid levels; fever and aggressive behavior.

On November 24, a referendum will be conducted to allow citizens to determine the future of Havidol. We warn that even if Havidol remains legal, supplies of active ingredient "avafynetyme" are increasingly scarce. Chronic sufferers of consumption deficit disorder are advised to conduct a thorough self examination with the aid of a mirror.

("Art of irony sometimes a bitter pill to swallow", November 3)
