      From: le@main.lekno.ws              The charset issue will not let me quote.              My father got a copy of HtBaJM back in the late '60s,       and I (unwisely,my parents told me later) showed it to       his Jewish mother.              She insisted it was inaccurate,       and as an example selected a line of dialogue       that she had used on me repeatedly,dismissing       the idea that she had ever used it.              Greenburg and his cats were featured some years       afterward in a New York (magazine) pictorial of       various persons of some renown and their felines.       According to Greenburg,youngest cat Maurice,who       was in the foreground of the photo,was the key       force in family decisions.              It struck me as I composed this that he might have       named the cat in reference to AIG/Starr tycoon       Maurice H. Greenberg (I don't think Morris the       9 Lives cat was a thing yet at this point).       But quote possibly not.                     -=-=-       The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,       at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
