	NO, no, you misunderstand.  When I stated that Robinson doesn't
write 'five-guys-etc' stories, I was responding to a certain person's
rag on these stories as 'garbage'.  Of course Spider writes Calahan's Bar
stories.  My point was that the label 'FGIABetc' was insufficient as a 
description.  Perhaps we should begin using the suggested method of
inserting facial expressions as comments .  This would cause less
confusion over all < cough, gag >.
	And, in my opinion, not all the Calahan stories are simple entertain-
ment either.  'The Time Traveler' from Crosstime Saloon, and that story whose
title I can't remember ( it starred Pyotr and the Lady MacBeth ) were real
real good stuff.  I'm a bit of a music person myself, and when Jake described
the event that led into the story itself, I cried.
	Hey, so how do you spell a 
raspberry ?
