Contempt of Congress meter reading-offscale.
Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
Court who will ensure church and state are joined
at the hip like clergy and altar boys.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president
represents, more and more closely, the inner soul
of the people. On some great and glorious day the
plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last and the White House will be adorned
by a downright moron." --- H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)

Art is not OT here.

Who drew the original cover for The Swords Trilogy by Michael Moorcock?
I thought it was Fazetta, but my magnifying glass says it's Dan
something. It is done in the same format - mostly nude woman held by a
knight on a war horse with sword uplifted.

I remember seeing it in a grocery store in the 1970's and buying it
simply because the cover had a mostly naked woman on it. It was my first
Moorcock novel (trilogy). I have since read many of his books -- tho not
all. Any Moorcock fans in the Subgenii world?

To get back 'on topic' - 'Behold the Man' was one of the few Moorcock's I
have read - very good read (and I am not just saying that because it won a
Nebula)

Grave Markings
by MICHAEL ARNZEN

# Paperback
# Publisher: Dell (October 1, 1994)
# Language: English
# ISBN: 0440213398

It won the 1994 Bram Stoker award.

IIRC, it was 1997 when I bought the book from Michael at a Writer's
Conference. I was astounded to find a massive plot hole in the award
winner. The next day I mentioned it to Michael and he was astonished.
"Where?" He asked.

I explained and he indicated he wasn't aware of the hole and it was
generated by the editor's request for another 'encounter.' The
problem was there would have been an aftermath rather than silence.

I did a search and found Michael's been busy.
