O, O, O, To-tus flore-o!

Thanks for the vernal news -  I was also thinking of M&D -   However  
- from GR - pg 720 - (ellipses from text):

"Remember didn't you sneak away from camp to have a moment alone
with what you felt stirring across the land ... it was the  
equinox ... green
spring equal nights ... canyons are opening up, at the bottoms are  
steaming
fumaroles, steaming the tropical life there like greens in a pot, rank,
dope-perfume, a hood of smell ... human consciousness, that poor  
cripple,
that deformed and doomed thing, is about to be born."
