ferret them out.

Just when you think you have them stopped, someone gets creative.

I suspect that as with other professions, the
smarter, more resourceful, and industrious criminals
tend to do better for themselves, driving faster cars,
sending their kids to better schools, and so on.

Land-grant schools are of all colors. MIT is a land-grant
school, and it used at least to have Latin diplomas. Among
the Ivies, Cornell is a land grant and Brown used to be one
(how you get booted I don't know).

Me either; I think they were too liberal. How you manage that I
don't know either.

According to the Brown Website:
In 1863, Brown became Rhode Islandÿs first land grant
university when it received 120,000 acres in Kansas
from the federal government under the Morrill Act. In
exchange for the money generated by the sale of the
land, Brown was to educate students in agricultural
and mechanical arts. Dissatisfied with Brown's broad
interpretation of appropriate coursework, the
legislature (having fended off Brown's challenge all
the way to the Supreme Court) transferred the land
grant responsibilities to Rhode Island College for
the Agricultural and Mechanic Arts (today's
University of Rhode Island) in 1894.

1967, I looked that up. Rex Harrison and Anthony Newley, eh,
impressive. I've never seen any film that had either, but I'm
kind of a fan of the latter as a result of having played in
his band on two sets of gigs 30-40 years ago.

I barely remember who he was.

A very talented guy, sort of like Rowan Atkinson only not ugly.
He co-wrote Stop the World, I Want to Get Off, The Roar of the
Greasepaint, the Smell of the Crowd, and Willy Wonka and the
Chocolate Factory. Appeared in many movies, of course none of
which I saw. Won a Grammy.

It's certainly possible. Thailand isn't that big.

Well, it's the size of France or Great Britain, though the
list of people associated with the royal family probably
isn't that big.

And they do tend to know each other, or at least of each other. The classical music community there probably isn't all that big either.

Truth, and as Pad's uncle was something like the king's
elephant keeper, and Somtow is said to be from a branch
of that royal family, the likelihood is high.

I'm not sure what that is. What are other authors in that
subgenre? Maybe I like it.

Gene Wolfe is the classic example. I think CJ Cherryh's Faded Sun
books qualify too.

I;m not sure I read those, though I was impressed by
some of Cherryh's short stories.

The really good ones get to the point where they're indistinguishable
from legit enterprises.

Even then, Brown was a group of Weird who had turned pro!

I've only seen one of the three.

Sounds like. I'd bet their families know each other at least.

I did, but it was a long time ago.
