Fiction

is that as long as Lydia Leftcoast lives, Reginald Hill lives.

Never read him, but if he's as good as you say, will give him a look. At my library they have the first, A Clubbable Woman(1970) so I may give it a try.

Saw a post from you somewhere, can't remember where or when, but in it you said that the bible (such as it is) was written in Greek. I read Barbara Thiering's Jesus and the Riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls and she said the same thing, and that the only true meaning of the gospels is attainable only thru the Greek version. Quite a book she wrote, totally amazing. She's an aged professor at the U of Austrialia, if she's still alive, and it caused an uproar.
