Joyce hath engraved:

stuff that _Hemingway_ didn't know (and Hemingway was a superbeing!).

   As a matter of fact, Hemingway's inability to write dialouge is almost 
legendary. His characters and sentences have a flat, stilted feel to 
them. Witness this submission to the 1995 Bad Hemingway Contest (no joke!)

<submission snipped - but it was funny!>

Yeah, Hemingway's style is...sparse, you could say.  But I love it.  For 
some reason, it works.

   This rather interesting style of his was probably the result of his 
career. Just another pitfall we Journalists have to avoid. :-)

Spiffy!  I didn't know you were a journalist!

Calla (typing): The streets darkened.  She looked up.  The black clouds 
  spread.  Slacker knew she had one way out.
