I just finished "the raw shark texts" and I liked it a lot. However, there are two things I don't understand. I don't know if these questions have been answered already on this site, but:
1. Who was the one sending the letters to the Second Eric Sanderson? How could the first Eric Sanderson have sent them to him if the two were the same person?
2. I understand that at the end Eric and Scout decide to stay in the conceptual world, but does that mean that he died in the "real world"? Was that what the body mentioned in the article represented?
I'm sorry if the answers to these questions are obvious, or if I'm looking to much into it, but I was just a little confused with these two parts. I really did like the book though and am looking forward to discussing it more with you guys in the future. Thanks.

I actually have no idea about your first question. I assume there must be some sort of system of mailing things to people at a specific point in time and he just timed them when sending them off.
The second one is really up in the air I suppose.

I had some of the same questions too, but i think we are not suppose to worry or look to deep ito the mechanics on it all. I don't know if saw the last episode of Lost but I get the feeling with Eric and Scout it the same thing. They moved on and it gets messy if you ask to many questions. It was a great book. I love the texted pictures.
