Default Who asked me? "The meek are getting ready."

I couldn't find your post... No, I'm not particularly a fan of ???, but
familiar. (Can't remember who you said.) I just happen to like the quote.

Yep. A loose companion to _Stand on Zanzibar_, also a good read. I
just picked up new copies of those two as well as _A Canticle for
Leibowitz_ by Walter M. Miller, an older, somewhat dated, but still
chilling post-apocalypse SF novel.

BTW, the title "the sheep look up" was adapted from the poem "Lycidas"
by John Milton:

The hungry Sheep look up, and are not fed,
But swoln with wind, and the rank mist they draw,
Rot inwardly, and foul contagion spread ...

It was me, I asked if you were a Holly Near fan based on 'the meek are
getting ready'. That is the title of one of her songs. www.HollyNear.com
I've been a fan of hers since the early 80's. Her voice is amazing..
