- Share via
Just a few words to Lisa Silagy [“Monstrosity of the Pokemon Promo,” Letters, Jan. 9]: Lighten up. This Pokemon thing is not the end of civilization as we know it. Didn’t you ever trade baseball cards as a kid? This fascination will last just until the next one comes along in a few months.
In the meantime, as long as the children’s pastimes are interspersed with other activities, they’ll survive it, the same as our parents did.
