     Tom Stanton, who's had some really sharp insights of late, whew, also 
     had this one:
     
     >On re-read, I was also struck by Jessica's dart game at the seance. 
     >Wonderful counterpoint on rockets & statistical improbibility (a 
     >bullseye on the first throw). Tasty touches.
     
     A-and, to follow this up:  It's also a counterpoint to the girlie star 
     map, in that it's a young woman, Jess, who scores a bulleye with the 
     phallic dart.  Yum yum.
