Good find Rick. Memory Babe has been the most important book in the Kerouac scholarship since the day it was published. Richard Marsh.

Thanks, Richard. We agree, but you should see the ignorant comments I get whenever I mention Gerry. I just mark them as spam and delete them. It's good to know at least one other person appreciates Gerry's work.
