I&#...Oh, I overreacted! Thanks for the kind words!<br /><br />I'm a big fan of Damon Knight, actually, and certainly wasn't intending to be contemptuous. When I first posted this -- as I said, a couple of decades ago -- I truly didn't remember the anthology. And I was too lazy to look it up. Upon resurrecting the post yesterday, I actually noticed it, and thought "I should look up the anthology and clean that up", but I was in kind of a hurry (my wife was ready to go somewhere ...) and I skipped it. So, really, thanks for the reminder!Rich Hortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07659613066689174738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-257559067333970126.post-26098820520596395132018-06-10T15:22:47.095-07:002018-06-10T15:22:47.095-07:00Ouch.

That was an offhand comment in a blog post I made perhaps 20 years ago, at which time I simply did not remember the book Dan Goodman had mentioned. I'll fix the reference, however, so thanks for that.
