&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000"&gt;Send an application letter, for a job I presume, &amp;nbsp;that begins with &lt;strong&gt;&amp;#39;To whom it may concern&amp;#39;&lt;/strong&gt;? Surely you jest! [:&lt;/font&gt;D]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For reasons that escape me, many of our&amp;nbsp;learners here on the Forum seem endlessly fascinated with the idea of writing letters that start with &amp;#39;To whom it may concern&amp;#39;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A search will find a great deal of discussion about this, with many people telling them again and again about how rarely and in what special and uncommon circumstances&amp;nbsp;this phrase is used. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best wishes, Clive&lt;/p&gt;
