Damn it Fred - I think you are right - it was elmer fudd!
Well I plead the onset of KRAFT disease..... AND literary licence... I
had to tie Warner bros into the mix somehow - it seemed apt.
I have fixed the errant passage.
Warner Brothers' Elmer Fudd - the wayward and careless Hunter of Looney
Tunes fame" is credited with first uttering the phrase "Be afwaid, be
vewy vewy afwaid."
- With accreditation for the correction - Thanks.

Hat Tip to Fred Pilcher for identifying that it was Elmner Fudd AND not
Bugs Bunny that utterred those most scary words - "Be vewy vewy afwaid"
