The American editors of the Guinness Book of Records are deleting and phasing out first records. People should know! It is unconscionable and unbelievable! The most recent letter that I received from the Guinness Book of Records states that not only is the "first walk round the earth" going to be deleted, they have already retired such historic records as the "first man on the moon" & the "first heart transplant" from the record book. This is outrageous! American kids and adults won't be getting correct information about first records from the Guinness Book of Records. People should know the truth about the deception before they spend the money to buy the book. The Minnesota Attorney General agrees that firsts should be kept in the Guinness Book of Records. A copy of Humphrey's letter, and the letters from Guinness editors can be faxed to you if you send me a fax number by email. I hope you will join the Kunst family and Minnesota Attorney General Hubert H. Humphrey III to highly encourage the American editors of the Guinness Book of Records to retain their listings of firsts. It is the right thing for them to do!
