I am glad someone else mentioned this passage from the interview. I 
found it to be a rather petulant and unnecessary outburst and quite 
unfair to all of us who are just trying to figure out what's going on 
in some of Wolfe's stories.

(I should go on to say that Mr. Wolfe is certainly entitled to the 
occasional petulant outburst, especially at his age, and also that I 
have a lot of nerve criticizing him for this, since, if you look at 
the archives of this forum, you will see that I have posted more than 
my share of petulant outbursts here.)
