The most vivid, graphic "self-referential" article I can remember appeared in _Scientific American_ some years back and also concerned printing (no, it was *not* Hofstaeder's corner). The right-hand-side opening page of the article was accompanyied by a full-page left-hand "verso" showing the cast, gleaming, mirror-image metal type used to print the "recto". In describing the picture the story thus became self-referential. Maybe "reflexive" is more appropriate! /Alan Paeth Computer Graphics Laboratory University of Waterloo
