Description of a party Benny attends, a party that just happens 'without anyone 
quite realizing it", very like the one in "Entropy".

Then: outside the party, so to allude to Entropy, in the real world the next 
day, on the Street, the Mideast crisis of 1956 and Grace Kelly's marriage
and 'their [leaders'] private versions of history showed up in action. If a 
normal distribution of types prevailed, they did.....

Stencil fell outside the pattern...Should have, like his father, been "inclined 
to action."........vegetative....lackadaisical in being 
He Who Searches for V..................Stencil, entropic here?

Stencil = very like Benny here?
