(urth) Urth Digest, Vol 76, Issue 82

[DAVID STOCKHOFF]

Pike as spear, not fish. Of course. I had to train myself to think "fish" just to learn the naming system.

          Would you mind making the connection for me among those three
          disparate nouns?  (Not the
        connection among the characters.)  Or point me to someplace
          in the archives?
      
    
    

    The spear that pierced Christ's side. What can I say? That's just
    the way I'm wired, I guess. I even thought the reference was obvious
    when I wrote it this morning. Clearly, I'm a little crazy, but
    sometimes it works. It gives me an appreciation for Wolfe's problem
    with getting his clues across.
