Page References are nice, but not required, of course. However, he was
saying how he was right and what he was saying canon without so much as a
"it's in this book" ... (I seem to recall him saying something like,
"it's not in any book I've read and I've read them all") Of course, you
can't give page references for something that's not in the book (although
this was). Ah well, I well follow K's example and offically withdraw
myself from this thread (But I won't put Demos 3 in my killfile, as I
basically said earlier [in different words], He just got off on the wrong
foot [in a BIG way] )
And BTW, shame on you. You should always have every SR book handy at all
times! <j/k> ;);)
