I wondered if anyone would think that, but no.  That line was
added at the last possible minute, right before
the ms was turned over to the printer.

I same to have a habit of doing that.  The
first line in YENDI about the newt was put in
at the beginning, but the second reference to
it, toward the end of the book, was called in
to Terri Windling just before the book went
into page proofs.
