Slothrop, in the basement, before following that earthy aroma to the root
shelter where Rocketman is born, "remembers" having earlier met Enzian
again:
---------
(360.39)Because it seems a while back they did meet again by the reedy edge
of a marsh south of the capital. Unshaven, sweating, stinking Rocketman

"Rocketman" title?
