Ranging from treatises on prodigies from the 17th century all the way up to issues of Amazing stories.

Apropos of last night's Black Hole of Calcutta-esque show. Amazed that no one passed out. "Let's go to Maine out on the East Coast / Let's go to Maine right now / Let's beat the retreat / Let's hop on the plane / Let's get out of here / Let's go to Maine"
