Michael, It is actually chapter eight (the original unpublished version of chapter eight) that provides the real proof. As it turns out, this long-suppressed chapter proves Huck Fin was meant to be a spin-off of the old Bob Newhart Show. Huck, himself, was no more than allegory for Howard Borden (Bob's air-freight-navigator neighbor). But I've said too much. Powerful enemies will stop at nothing to keep this information hidden from the general public and Twain scholars alike. Sincerely, Horace J. Digby
