   It's in one of the Best SF of the year collections edited by Gardner   
   Dozois. I can't recall which one at the moment. Unfortunately I'm in the   
   middle of having the house worked over by painters and decorators and my   
   books are all in a lock-up store. If I get time I'll see if I can find   
   the box, the book and then the story in question.
