Doesn't anyone but me think he\nactually dies at various points, and the first is when he drowns? How can\nyou talk of Sev1 as being such a jerk--he's just a kid, and how do we know\nwhat he would turn out like? Triskele, Vodalus, Valeria and Thecla are still\nto come in his hasty adolescence.\n\nBut enough of that. Re Rudesin's pictures: The one he is cleaning is\nobviously of Neil Armstrong on the moon. Does anyone recognize the others?\n\"...a dancer whose wings seemed leeches, a silent-looking woman who gripped\na double-bladed dagger and sat beneath a mortuary mask.\" Fantastic realism\nreigns in the pinakotheka, not the \"drippers and spitters\" currently popular\nin the House Absolute.\n\nThat second one seems sort of late Victorian, Rosetti or Burne-Jones,\ndoesn't it? Anyone hear a bell ring? Of course, they could all be science\nfiction art, covers of magazine issues Wolfe has appeared in---that would be\na good joke! (And a real possibility.)\n\n-alga-"
