The guys who wrote "Total Eclipse of the Heart" wrote a German musical called "Tanz der Vampire" that features the music/theme of "Total Eclipse" quite frequently. In case you can't get enough of Bonnie Tyler, you can get the song as sung by a long-dead master vampire.

("Tanz der Vampire" evidently came to New York as "Dance of the Vampire," and I can't imagine what the producer was thinking. "Tanz" seems to fit German sensibilities. I can't imagine anyone paying NYC prices to see something so intentionally ludicrous. You can read a synopsis of it here.)

Here's a report from a doc working on recovery efforts:

I just talked with one of the recovery guys working the Convention Center. "There are hundreds of dead on the second floor of the CC."

Can't wait for the official body count.

Three different friends, none of whom know one another so they couldn't have checked their stories, have all told me that they know the doctor who was on-call the night they removed the manuscript that was tightly wedged into Richard Gere's hands. I'm totally serious.

Just read this entire thread. Wow. Good stuff. Thank you.

I'm dying to know two things though:

* What are the two words Teresa has been trying to avoid throughout the original posting and all the subsequent comments? (http://nielsenhayden.com/makinglight/archives/004641.html#39338)

* And WHAT was the purely hypothetical book at the Strand? (http://nielsenhayden.com/makinglight/archives/004641.html#40447)

Somebody e-mail me PLEASE. I hate not being in the know.
