I didn't realize that Lovecraft lived in RI. That might explain some things-- it's the weirdest and most interesting place I've ever lived.
Jeanne - I didn't know he was from RI either! He was born there and he father died in a hospital there after having a psychotic break. I love how much I'm learning from working on this series.
