Dr. Boli’s secretary has just brought him the interesting news that the house recently received a call from the fictional dimension inhabited by television characters. The man did not answer the call, because he has heard far too many stories about the disastrous consequences of connecting two dimensions. Demons might pour out of the receiver, which would be inconvenient and require a great deal of cleaning up. Here is yet another reason why Dr. Boli prefers to communicate by means of handwritten letters, or (in cases of urgency) through his private telegraph lines connected to the offices of various heads of state.
