OT: I appreciated the correction to the Dylan Thomas death story. I was heaving a sigh at reading the recitation of the myth and was relieved to see it set straight. One additional aspect of that situation was that a number of foolish American academics kept giving Thomas more liquor, imagining that this was proper Bohemian (or Welsh) behavior.
