Moore for\nyears myself but I did recall that it was in _A Treasury of Great Science\nFiction_ edited by Anthony Boucher. I am the proud owner of a Science\nFiction Book Club edition of this or was, for when I tried to find my copy\nafter reading the message quoted above, I couldn't.\n\nBut I have been able to come up with another copy and have reread the\nstory. I would say that the story really only has one connection to\n\"Suzanne Delage\"; it is about a man who has had a number of extraordinary\n(related) experiences but has totally forgotten about them, except under\nhypnosis, which is how he finds out he has had them. But in this case the\nauthors of the extraordinary experiences are the cause of the memory loss,\nrather than the man's own sense of mediocrity.\n\nI will post a summary of the story soon when I have more time, if anyone is\ninterested, and maybe even if no one is.\n\nWilliam Ansley"
