Hear hear!!  Thanks for putting this together Matt.  Henry embodies the best of our little Twain family, as Terry puts it in the final comment.

As for Bruce Michelson's remark regarding "outbreaks of crackpot fandom (Mark Twain being, as far as I know, the only classic American author who’s liable to that)"

I suggest that he or anyone else on here try hanging around the Hemingway crowd at some point . . . .
