<DIV>Has anyone else seen the gloriously bad early 1970's scifi movie
Zardoz??? The one with Sean Connery giving a definitively rotten
performance wearing bright-red leather hot pants? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Well, I recently sat through the DVD and was struck by how closely the
advanced/backward civilizations paralleled the divisions of human society in
Wolfe's Urth. And the idea of keeping certain humans in stasis like poor
Mamelta to be "unfrozen" or "decanted" at need. (Though properly speaking,
that's on the Whorl not on Urth) </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I suggest this in a spirit of good humor, but some Lupines might enjoy
watching "Zardoz" in the interests of research</DIV>
