Bill: Yeahhhhhh! The Caryatid is my favorite!!! Heinlein's paragraph about her puts me in mind of what the heroes of 9/11 went through... :-( IMO Rodin was a freakin' genius. Pictures don't do justice to his art; there's nothing like seeing it in person. For anyone contemplating a trip to Philly, the Rodin Museum is a must-see (right down the parkway from the Art Museum steps made famous by the Rocky movie)... but read up on Rodin first to appreciate your visit more fully. Now, back to our regularly-scheduled thread subject!
