It is possible that de Camp and Pratt's Shea stories are the origin of "Yngvi is a louse!!" However, my understanding was that it had a more obscure origin, somewhere in fandom, and was then drawn up into the Harold Shea universe. I'm not positive on this, and I'm not a fanzine collector so I can't really look for references in fandom pre-dating the Shea stories. Anybody have any good references to cite on this? -- David Dyer-Bennet -- ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-mrvax!ddb
