As long as the topics are mildly\ninteresting are they so much worse than nothing? However, I commend you for\ntrying to get everyone back to something that interests you and is on topic.\n\nSince Able and Arthur a in some way the same person, I would say they have\nto be linked from birth. It has been postulated  that Arthur's mother or\nfather was from Mythgarthr. I'm not sure this explains everything. I suspect\n(although some seem viscerally hostile to the notion, that all the seven\nworlds are \"in\" Arthur.\n\n----- Original Message ----- \nFrom: \"Kieran Mullen\" <kieran at ou.edu>\nTo: <urth at urth.net>\nSent: Monday, February 21, 2005 5:43 PM\nSubject: (urth) META: Where can I find a discussion list for Gene\nWolfe'sbooks?"
