Trivia:

Pages 16-19: A piece as maudlin as "The Karmakazi Pilot From the Deep Blue Sky" in Cranium Frenzy # 2. But there it is, so what can I do? I had a job for awhile in 1975 as a nurse's aide in a Tacoma area rest home for former patients of Western State Hospital. Many of the residents had been victims of Western's big lobotomy wave in the 1940s-1950s. I'm sure that job experience somehow worked it's way into this little essay.
