"John V. Lindsay often delivered homespun advice to ordinary constituents, and Edward I. Koch claims to have answered every letter or e-mail he has received. But a century ago, few elected officials were more prolific or perspicacious in their correspondence than William J. Gaynor, who became New York City’s mayor 103 years ago on Tuesday, and served until 1913."

Mike has generated the most computer generated faux responses to New Yorkers ever.
Than he stopped answering...
Mayor Bloomberg Unloved Stop Writing Mayor Gaynor Most Prolific?
