At home now, where I can check my 6th-grade reading. It's called "And He
Built a Crooked House" in that collection. But I like the Moebius title
better.
Title story was an early introduction to Pynchonian paranoia--seems the
title character is God's art critic, and They're making a few changes
here and there . . . protagonists are driving along, seeing the landscape
through their windows as normal, but if they roll the window down, all
that's there is fog. Very interesting at the age I was then; sorry
Heinlein took the turn he did later on.
