Among the other things, I noticed that the catchy rhythm track on HWD sounds like the instrumental equivalent of something that might be done by THE BOBS (for those uninitiated, the Bobs are an a "nu-wave" a capella group who have avoided falling into the "Doo-wop" rut of others such as the Nylons). Something like the rhythm track on "Helter Skelter". Has anyone brought up the possibility that _The Fog_ is a revisitation of the character in _the Ninth Wave_ at a later date? (That is, of course, assuming she survived, which I'd not like to get into...) - Eo PS: Is anyone alive down in the Bay area? What an inopportune time for the big one.
