Stream-of-consciousnes blogging: The Flores Man post got me thinking about one of my favorite science fiction starting points: "What would happen if two sentient species evolved in different locations on the same planet?" Which got me thinking of the Cthulhu stories of H.P. Lovecraft -- for instance, "The Nameless City" -- where something like this is exactly the case. I taught this story for Fred Chappell's Genre Fiction course last year. I'll tell you this, it's creepy as hell.

Which got me thinking about how PClem is going to be mad as hell when he finds out that I pushed the album review he posted earlier this morning down the page.
