hmmm, I know any number of people, formerly of the intelligensia,
who easily qualify, starting with a few high volume burnt-out coders.
as far as I see, my vision is limited by "The Edge of the World"
--Sunday (20/10/96) BC is a perfect example.
BTW, about 10 years ago I was on flight from LA to London,
first class, and BOTH Parker and Hart were on board --well, at least
their physical material selves were on board --they are definitely
skirting the edge of the abyss. Parker resembles the King, but not
quite so short; Hart resembles Peter. No sleep possible that night
with those two on board.
Parker & Hart are definitely a few cards short...
