But using these two clues together I found what I never had put together before. Thanks fellas! I always knew that the left head was blonde and the right head was dark haired. But Wolfe took pains to never say which head was speaking, during that sequence. But in UotNS, Wolfe does say it was the left head which speaks, though not mentioning hair color. So Typhon is blonde, which jibes nicely if you suspect Silk is a Pas/Typhon clone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
