(urth) There Are Doors

Maybe there are.  Green only goes to one, so he is only able to recognize 
influences of Laura's world on his.

The obvious response to this is, "Then shouldn't Wolfe have alluded to those 
other worlds?" Maybe, but not necessarily. But if Wolfe intended a more 
elaborate, "particle-based" cause for the similarities of the two worlds 
(rather than a "wave-based" one), I would have expected someone else to pose 
it. Unlike the mistaken expert-theorizing in Short Sun and Soldier, Green is 
the only offering an explanation at all. Green's theorizing --I think-- is 
more that of VRT/Marsch in "The Fifth Head of Cerberus": The right one but 
delivered by a non-expert.
