Come on, you esoterics...
Mar. 20th, 2003 10:44 amI've just had the following email from my Mum (she's a journalist):
"The boss has had letter-to-editor from a d'Arcy Orders claiming to be archvist for the Ancient Order of Kalithumpians - a dining club founded in 1920 - may have Cambridge (?univ) connections. We're not sure if it's a wind-up."
Google turns up no hits for "Ancient Order of Kalithumpians".
Anyone have any light to shed?

So it should be pretty straightforward to contact Mr. Orders (MBE) through the college to find out whether he is the real source of the letter.
However, if it's him perpetrating the hoax that won't help much.
