Lines: 15 As long as we're talking about typos, I just started Harrison's new book "A Stainless Steel Rat is Born" (Spectra, $2.95). There is a REALLY cute typo in the first chapter (page 4, as a matter of fact) that goes "Imagine if you can -- and you will need a fertile imagination indeed -- a one-tonne angry boar hog with sharp tushes and mean dispositions." I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to be sat upon by that animal..... You don't suppose they really meant tusks, do you??? *giggle* -- :From the caverns of the Crystal Cave: Chuq Von Rospach Currently: nsc!chuqui@decwrl.ARPA {decwrl,hplabs,ihnp4,pyramid}!nsc!chuqui Soon to be: ..!sun!
