...mannered young fellow from Richmond, with long brown hair floating down both sides of a pale, round face that looks more like 24 than 34. This is a Wolfe in chic's clothing: off-white suit, lemon-colored tie, brown-and-white pin-stripe shirt with French cuffs, wine-colored silk handkerchief puffing out of the jacket pocket-when he gets dressed up, in short, he looks like a well-polished Pierce-Arrow...

Lacking chlorophyll, fungi cannot make their own food, batten instead on fabric, fur, fat, paint, plants, plastics, skeletons, cold cream, jet fuel and people. One species can survive only on the left hind leg of a water beetle. Most fungi reproduce by the sexual union of two different spores, sometimes drop hundreds 'of millions of spores in three or four days. Most of them...
