A wonderful friend since teenager days, Frank Stearns, just finished running the Falmouth Road Race and sent me an amazing note: Years ago he and his older brother Alan were in NYC, walking Central Park, and came upon a sidewalk bookseller. Frank saw a Vonnegut novel and plunked down 3 bucks for it. When he opened the inside flap, he saw his brother Alan's name with a date. Amazing or what! Alan attributed it to being part of a bunch of books taken by an old roommate in Brooklyn.

Vonnegut would have loved that story.
