Randy,
Message arrives.
Reader opens it.
Reader reads it.
No one around to say thanks for reading it.
Bottom of letter says "Thanks in advance for at least
reading this message."
Essentially the same as "Thanks for reading this message."
Thanks in advance for responding to this response.
Thanks.
Logendra.
