T Stanton remembers his educational experience:



> I once

>met a professor who had read the book & when I asked him what he thought

>of it he said "I'm not sure he needed 800 pages to tell the story of

>a knighted Kraut fag shot off in the ass end of a rocket."



and where did your benighted professor find those extra 40 pages, eh?  
some serious 

secret scholarship going on here it seems, or maybe he was just reading 
the wrong 

book?
