To Whom it May Concern:
It is the decided opinion of investigators as well as medical personal that the individual known as Kaspar Hauser is definitively the kidnapped prince of the royal House of Baden. The reasons for this opinion can be explained through empirical analysis of the information provided both by the individual known as Kaspar Hauser and the work of the researchers involved in the investigation. Among the myriad of reasons behind this decision are the way in which he was held, the characteristics of royalty shown in the young man in question, and his untimely death which indicates his true parentage.

His alleged foster parentage is highly suspicious. The man who sent the letter along with the boy indicates that he asked the alleged mother nothing of the child nor did he alert the police that the boy had been given to him (Bondeson 75). Unless the foster parent understood of the true nature of the child, there is no reason for the police not to have been alerted to the child's existence.
Hauser's physical appearance has been compared to other members of the royal family and an uncanny resemblance is easily discerned. In addition to this physical resemblance, the young man showed himself to be highly intelligent despite the horrible conditions in which he lived, indicating the natural abilities and aptitude of a member of royalty.

The game further progressed to shooting each other off the top of the jeep with their fingers as they yelled "bang" This game certainly showed some of the more aggressive sides of all the boys. The fact that the boys stuck with it and turned it into a more violent game would indicate some issues of gender difference as well. The game continued to evolve until another boy got knocked
Finally, by offering purely informational material on its Internet site, it draws additional traffic from web-surfers who may be looking for information regarding the benefits of 'going organic,' and after becoming persuaded about the general superiority of such produce, decide to make their next grocery store trip at Wild Oats.

Some produce may be reduced in price due to seasonal considerations, but not specifically because of the product life cycle of organic blueberries. Even the online sales information for Wild Oats products do not advertise any specific discounts, regarding dry goods, regardless of season or venue.

The poem depicts a fantasy machine that could magically do a child's homework. The machine spews out an answer that the child narrator himself knows is wrong, mocking the idea that a machine can do a better job.
