From: Morris M. Keesan <keesan@BBN-UNIX> The story referred to by "/tlj" (ops.uci @ Rand-Relay) as possibly by Silverberg is actually one of the stories in the "Change War" series by Fritz Leiber, which includes the novel "The Big Time", and a number of shorter works which were recently re-issued as the book "Change War". The "war" is a conflict between two sides of history-changers, the Snakes and the Spiders. I don't remember the title of the specific story mentioned, but it's either the first or second story in the collection. Both books are highly recommended.
