Did the author of the Fafrhd and the Grey Mouser series begin as a Hollywood character actor? Surely there must have been only one Fritz Lieber, or was there another? /* ---------- */ I second the question, in reference to a truly horrid movie called *Equinox* (watch for the fellow who played Herb Tarlek on *WKRP*, among others who are just as convincing as teenagers as Robert Vaughn was in *Teenage Caveman*). I'd like to think that the gentleman who writes such classic SF, fantasy, and science essays wouldn't have touched this turkey... James Jones
