(urth) changing the immutable gods

[Allan Anderson]

Was it Wolfe that wrote that story about the (flamboyant) Fairies returning
to Ireland, or was it Bradbury?

Primary referent would be Castleview, but I recall there being  
several short stories where fairies are identified with aliens.   
Enough so that on the last one of these I read, I was waiting for the  
association to pop up.

Wouldn't it be nice if I could cite which stories?  I will have to  
skim the tables of contents of the collections this evening.

Regarding the equation of gods with extraterrestrials (and thus  
faeries), I may be conflating Wolfe with somebody else.  Bad form.
