I'm just glad that I've got the Harper Perennial edition of "V." "V."
has always been a very hard book for me to absorb. You may have given
me an "open sesame" with Mondaugen's story.
"Some said sunspots, others lightning bursts; but everyone
agreed that in there someplace was the earth's magnetic field,
so a plan evolved to keep a record of sferics received at
different latitudes.
V., HP 242
I may be a natural-born Stencilizer but Charles Dodge's "Earth's
Magnetic Field" instantly leaps to mind. Two days ago I was listening
to "Any Resemblance is Purely Coincidental", long a favorite of speech-
song composer Charles Amirkhanian.
"How can we know the dancer from the dance?"
Excellent question and a reminder to look for sources:
