There was a post about an interview a few days \nlater... then the news of Wolfe's death.\n\nHope nobody is offended, just noticed the coincidence - a whimsical sort \nof connection that Wolfe might have used to draw the reader into a story \nabout some other sort of connection. I haven't read the story so I \ndon't know whether its about the usual colloquial sense of 'checking out'.\n\n92 is also the last 'natural' element in the Periodic Table, in the \nsense that no elements heavier than Uranium occur in other than trace \nquantities as part of a decay cascade. (Once you start with \ncoincidences, you can't stop.)\n\n- Gerry Quinn"
