Hi, DC! Sorry you've been ill. And Flyer, of course, was a twist on Strider (for those who may not have gotten the allusion), because Clark can fly, of course.

Mouse, I'm glad you liked the "coroner" line. I needed to repeat it so FoLCs wouldn't think I'd just mis-typed "corner" in that first sentence. And to clarify: the main narrator is Sam Spade from Dashiel Hammett's "The Maltese Falcon." Think of a taller Humphrey Bogart with a much bigger hat (not nearly as photogenic, of course) and you have me. Glad you liked the Lois and Clark analogs.

Remember, y'all, written feedback costs the reader so little yet is so valuable to the writer.
