the windows of the Soul. A good Alien Xenologist might not put it
quite so poetically ... but he can, if he's sharp, read a lot in
the look of an eye! Bad Medicine Elwood Caswell walked rapidly down
Broadway with a loaded revolver hidden in his coat pocket. He
didn't want to use the weapon, but feared he might anyhow. This was
a justifiable assumption, for Caswell was a homicidal maniac. BR02B
Got a problem? Just pick up the phone. It solved them all-and all
