     Then again, maybe it was just some old guy who had to pee.

     Shhh!  You weren't supposed to mention that online.  Now he knows that 
     we know he uses RR.TFCNY at mail.fdncenter.org as an alias...

     Was I the only one at the PLNY dinner who noticed a tall gentleman, 
     long gray hair, around 60 (generally fitting the descriptions lately 
     noted in the Esquire Lotion piece and the New York Magazine piece), 
     who came into Giovanni's last night, took a look around and gave us a 
     brief but intense stare, walked past us to the men's room, looked at 
     us intensely again as he exited the men's room, and left the 
     restaurant?

     Gee, all the rest of us get out of the PLNY meetings is decent, if 
     mediocre, food at inflated prices and long discussions about (to pick 
     one of the more interesting) davemarc's budding career as a sports 
     reporter.
     
     Which is probably, come to think of it, why we're not famous.

Max,
Not only am I not sure what you meant now, but not sure what I meant either.  I 
guess I 
thought you meant we could appreciate his work in some pristinely *literary* 
way. Just as
 vague, no? At any rate I agree w/ you in believing that his motives are
admirable.  
Imagine the fame, the spotlights, the Leno-Letterman appearances, the Nike logo 
on the 
book covers.  All of this could be his, just by showing up at the next PLNY 
gathering!!
     
 Yet, he demurs.
