Wilber Winkle, an idiosyncratic nebbish with a peculiar focus on the odd and unlikely fact, has corresponded for years with America's major corporations. Fuelling his complaints and comments is a single overriding premise: that the rights of consumers -- his rights -- are under siege, and he must do what he can to defend them.
