Dear Sun Spots: Thank you for your wonderful column and all the help.


I was wondering if you could find out the name of the background music
in the commercial for the depression medicine named Pristiq that plays on WCSH Channel 6. Who plays it and is there a CD of it? They have a
1-800-PRISTIQ number on the ad. Thank you so much. — J.F., Dixfield.

Answer: According to a representative from Wyeth Corporate Public Relations, the company that manufactures Pristiq, the music was developed by their ad agency specifically for the commercial on Pristiq. They said that it is not commercially available.

Dear Sun Spots: On Aug. 15, we had a benefit supper for a young man
with cancer. I wanted to say thank you to so many for coming and
helping out even though it was an incredibly hot evening. So many
people came and gave beyond our expectations. I wish I could thank you
all personally. Thanks to Pastor Rich at the United Methodist Church
and to all the thoughtful, generous people, we raised $1,820 to help him
out. Thank you all so much! — Linda Hayes, No Town.

Dear Sun Spots: I want to thank the person who found my earring in
the lobby at the Rumford Post Office and turned it in to the clerk.
Thanks again. — D.G., Massachusetts.

Dear Sun Spots: I am looking for people in the Rumford, Mexico
and Dixfield area who work on computers with problems, upgrading, etc.
I would appreciate help in finding them, as there are no listings in
the yellow pages. Thank you. — Carol, Rumford.

Thank you for a great column. — Deidre, No Town.
