I've got the best gig on the Sphere, and I thank all of you for participating. Alicia, Greg Williamson, Tim Steele, Sam Gwynn, Paul Lake, Dave Mason, Rhina, our Master of Memory, Golias' Razor, The first great Sonnet Bake-off by Dick Davis, Professor Hecht, more fun than a man should have! Alan and I leave Feb 3 for Key West to see the Wilburs. Please post your questions on this thread. Richard uses a 1948 Underwood and a coal-fired phone, but we'll be toting a wireless laptop. We shall select questions and take dictation from Mr. Parnassus. May I suggest that everyone think seriously about these questions. I don't want to wade through seas of ghafla, and our time with Dick will be very limited. Every questioner should begin by rereading his Collected Poems.
Then Alan and I proceed to the Virgin Islands for the balance of Feb, and the inmates will take over the asylum. Upon my return I plan to ask Deborah Warren, Clive Watkins, and David Anthony to do guest appearances. David's trade book is out, and Deborah's and Clive's are coming in February. Then I'm going to implore Rhina to adjudicate Sonnet Bake-off # 2.
