A couple of years ago my sister-in-law (the one who still has the Kerry Edwards campaign poster in her window) brought some to Thanksgiving.<BR/><BR/>"What's that stuff?" asked my very sharp 11 year old niece.<BR/>"Tomato aspic." I answered.<BR/>"Tomato what?" <BR/>"Aspic. Two syllables.

I had just assumed they were a pompous and bloated prog-rock band, like Kansas or ELP. So now I know all about Lark Tongue in Aspic.

I a delighted that you put up "recommended reading" lists on the right hand margin. Only they don't stay there. Me, I'm saving up a list for when I get my next commission check. But the list keeps getting blown out every time you remove something to make room for something new. Can we have an evergrowing list please, even if in simplified form?
