...Well, it wasn't a question of doing the same thing again as finally finishing the thing that I'd started. There are definitely times when you go through every permutation of an idea and then you go, well, that's over. And that was lovely, thank you. I'll have my fish. With Serenity, I felt like we had just gotten started. The story hadn't been told yet. That's what put the fire in me. When I actually had the whole thing filmed and cast and ready to go, and then it wasn't finished, it made...
...Master of Malgudi Thank you for "the fountainhead" [Aug. 15-22], about novelist R.K. Narayan, who vividly brought to life the make-believe South Indian town of Malgudi through detailed descriptions of every street, alley, shop and office.

...catastrophe has been, perhaps it is the very wake-up call that the U.S. and President Bush need to make them address the real possibility of devastation caused by global warming and what should be done about it - now. Hally Hardie St. Ives, England Healthy Hearts I want to thank you for your story on the new, noninvasive heart-scanning technology that makes blockages easier to detect [Sept. 5]. But I must also damn you in the same breath. Although I'm a 59-year-old smoker, I've been fit most of my life. These days I scull three...
