Dawn Andrews:


The writer of the quotation below is Dr. Hamilton, who has an abiding interest in all manner of street culture.  His first hand experience is Scotland's.
He believes, apparently, that by dint of hyperbolic imagination he can leap into any street on the planet, but, curiously, he does not believe in remote viewing, among other things he doesn't believe.


I, R "Elemenope" Dillon, posted the Billboard Report apropos an exchange between Lawrence Upton and Robin Hamilton in order to give them some outside date viz what's up in the States.  You know, years ago, during the height of the Stones/Beatles/Jefferson Airplane/Hendrix era, I encountered a traveller from Zurich, a doctor, in Boulder, Colorado, outpost of the Beat/Buddhist revolution.
He told me that in Switzerland the most famous American pop musician was Eddie Fisher.


I enjoyed your escalator poem, it answered the question about what is going on inside the beautiful heads of certain women in posh venues - - Harrod's (?)  Bergdorf's (?) - - as mysterious and unattainable they glide past.


Robin Hamilton is also a publisher.  His Phantom Rooster Press has already released David Bircumshaw's latest book, _Painting Without Numbers_, and is preparing one my myself, _Utter Dark, Utter Light_.


I'll take the energy of your compliments as a greeting.
