From: "Alice Turner" <akt@ibm.net> Subject: (urth) Hooray for Ranjit! and White Fountain Date: Tue, 6 Apr 1999 19:23:16 Thank you, Ranjit. It's a wonderful list, and without you we wouldn't have it. Um, with regard to the New Sun/White Fountain, I bow to you boys in your physics calculations, but I do want to remind you that this was conceived by and at the sexual congress of Apheta and Sev. Wolfe gives us plenty of leeway in the time situation with his explanations that the ship winks in and out of time, and can go backwards--he gives us the situation of Burgundofara, as well as the hierodules. It is possible that this is something he thought up after the fact to make sense of prior loose ends, but, nevertheless, it's done well enough to impress me thoroughly. -alga *More Wolfe info & archive of this list at http://www.urth.net/urth/
