[talk.bizarre] found in rec.arts.sf-lovers

xanthian@zorch.SF-Bay.ORG (Kent Paul Dolan) (03/28/91)

There is a great discussion going on in rec.arts.sf-lovers, about the
poetry from which book titles have been taken.  I bow to the lieracy of
those posting there; utterly amazing how many great poets I don't appear
to know.

However, that is not the subject of the current posting.  This is instead
some found wonderous bizarreness in a .sigge block associate with that
thread.

Being a person of limited means, I will nonetheless donate Many Fine
Camels to the Roger David Carasso memorial net.bribery and sendme
sisters.with.big.hooters fund in the name of the person who patches
Pnews netwide to include the above warning.
