Nowadays we need closure. In the past, it might have been a long and lingering grief, we have forgotten what it is like not to know, which must make it even harder to bear. Image is PD, YAY!

Hi Ed,

loved this. Any reason for "night-lite" vice "night-light"? You have "nite-lite" at the end. Should "swats" in "swats-for-mocks" be swots (like I was)?

I'd seen this yesterday. A bit of a sideways look itself, as I'm sure you intended.

I wonder if you could have strung (ho,ho) the reader along a little longer. Not reveal that there are no strings quite yet. No matter. I'd be interested to read part II. Some might protest that your piece is a little over-written, but I think,...
