[Wonderful Labs] BANGING ON THE WONDER

[Wonderful Laboratories]

Dear Mr. W.,
 
	Is Charles Webb, the novelist who wrote "The Graduate," the same guy as
Charles Harper Webb, the poet?  If not, is there any relation?
 
Yours,
Poetaste

Dear Wordwitch,

	No, I no think so.  I asked Mister Dark, our resident expert on the
death of the Sixties ("But they will never be able to convict me, O
no..."), what he knew about the two Webbs.  After removing the coffee
spoon from my shoulder blade and recovering my trousers from the
rooftop, I realized I might be better off consulting an encyclopedia.

	Of course, Mister Malice had booby-trapped the encyclopedias.  Took out
half the library just by running my finger across the titles.

	After a thorough decontamination scrubdown to remove the last of the
booby juice, I realized it was time for a nice, relaxing array of
drinks.  18 hours later, the police finally brought me down with a
tranquilizer bazooka, but not before I'd crushed many of their tiny
human planes in my mighty paws.  APE LAW!

	But enough about my work day.  

	There's no relation between your writer boys, for Charles Webb is a
fairly common name, it seems.  One of them was a Revolutionary War
chappie, and another designed uncomfortable benches.  Folks named their
children after them in the hope that they might one day grow up to be
Spider-Man villains.
