I have a slight recollection of a discussion that I think took place some time
ago about stories inspired by the 9/11 incident.  I believe that JCO's "The
Mutants" is one of these stories.  But I also remember somebody mentioning some
other authors who have also published 9/11 stories.  Is John Updike one of them?
 If anyone knows of any other stories that fit this category, I would appreciate
having the information.  If it doesn't exactly concern JCO, you can e-mail me at
my personal address: tanya.tromble@free.fr.  Thanks in advance,
