Oh, Gooch, you cute little ol'copraphiliac! Are you wooing me again? you ol' sweet talker.
As I wrote before (and it merits posting again) I asked Martin on his *Heavy Water* tour stop in Oxford, Miss.,to roll me one of his British "Golden Virginia's" (a real Oxymoron) tobacco cigaretts (I can't find them very often.) He rolled me two -in the signing line- (a bold move,indeed, but Martin inspires me) and I later enjoyed their light, falvorable taste, pleasure.
Martin does chain smoke. I hope his little lungs stay healthy into the late 2030's...AD. And wonder what his subject matter will be then since he's already gone "Jupiter and beyond" in this century.
Don't know if his Dad, Sir K, smoked cigaretts. I only saw mostly empty bottles of grain alcohol(vodka, gin?) in the photos of him. -julie clinch
