I think Wolfe is fairly straightforward in that interview, but I also
don't recall a lot of the kinds of questions he tends to be devious
about ("who killed who?," "which egg was drugged," "what does Silk see
when he thinks he sees Pike's ghost").  Wolfe seems to answer these
things sometimes, but really regard them as "cheating" on our part if
we have to go to him.
