    While vegetating early one Saturday afternoon, I found on the tube a movie
which I think they had titled: "Witches Brew".  It was the second movie I've
seen based on Fritz Lieber's "Conjure Wife".  I checked out the credits at the
end of the movie thoroughly, and while they listed a couple of 'writers', they
gave Fritz absolutely no credit.  How can they get away with this?  
    In case some of you haven't seen this book (WARNING:  SEMI-SPOILER 
APPROACHING!!), it's about an anthropology professor who accidently discovers
something which ALL women have been keeping secret from men since the dawn of
time:  they're all witches.  Once you've gotten over accepting this improbable
premise (I was trained in this at an early age.), it's a good read, about as
good as most of Fritz's stuff.
