Again, my heartfelt gratitude to all those eager readers out
there asking to see my TRP story.  I mailed out six today, heard
back from Mssr. John Burgess on an earlier mailing, and accumulated
nine more names (you know who you are!) which I'll get out tom'w.
Unfortunately, the story resides digitally only on my ancient
Commodore 128, and I don't have a scanner to get the hardcopy 
into the Mac.  Luckily, I'm a snailmail junkie anyhow.
RE: horrid sweets: a friend sends me a clipping, sans source,
about a Swedish firm marketing popsicles with real embedded bugs
in them.  Tequila worms for the elementary school set?
RE: Lovecraft:  As a Providence resident, I can attest to the 
veracity of everything HPL wrote.  Come and see--if you dare!
But I recall no overt references to HPL in the TRP canon--tho
of course HPL is everywhere in the ILLUMINATUS! trilogy.
