I have read all the silly validation demands people send in and plaster all over the internet. Some of those letters simply prove to the shady operators that you are an easy mark and mean nothing to responsible CAs.
Simply put, you can no longer meet the least informed consumer standard when you (mis)cite seventeen different laws and court cases.
Since I was asked privately and I think it'll be a good thing, here is what I would suggest for a validation letter.

Re: Acct # __________
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is being sent to you in response to a notice sent to me on January 1, 2007. As I do not recognize the debt in question, I am exercising my rights under the FDCPA to demand validation of the debt.
(If already reported to CBR)
Since this has already been reported to my credit report, I expect you to update the reporting to show that the debt is disputed, as required by law.
I look forward to working with you resolve this issue and will be eagerly watching the mailbox for the validation I requested. I trust that you will have the documents mailed to me within 30 days of receiving this letter and will, of course, cease all collections actions until validation is provided. Sincerely,
