My email program may have broken the link below -- if that doesn't work, try this one: http://tinyurl.com/26w2h9s And locus's site seems to be down right now anyway, but a short item on sfsite says: Author Gene Wolfe underwent open heart surgery on April 24 after suffering shortness of breath. An echocardiogram showed a leaking mitral valve and Wolfe had underwent double bypass and valve repair surgery. He is recovering well and his family hopes to move him to a rehab facility in the next couple of days. sfsite link: http://tinyurl.com/35zyn95
