E. (Doc) Smith, says that there was to have been a seventh novel (not "Masters of the Vortex"--that seems to me to be a side-stream novel), that Smith had it all worked out in detail (but not necessarily written down), and that he told Heinlein the ending. All Heinlein says about it is that the ending "develops by inescapable logic from clues in CHILDREN OF THE LENS." Anybody out there know anything else? Does the story exist? What are the clues? I have a few ideas but would like to see what all of you think. -- ". . . and shun the frumious Bandersnatch." Robert Neinast (ihnp4!ho95b!ran) AT&T-Bell Labs
