People sometimes wonder where my internet handle comes from. It's the title of an old science fiction story by Cordwainer Smith, The Dead Lady Of Clown Town. "This is Clown Town, the underpeople place. Haven't you heard of it?"Published in 1964, it's quite an amazingly prescient story. The Dead Lady is a "machine print" of the personality of a woman who died many years before the time of the story. She has become "Travelers' Aid", a help booth in the Undercity. If you like science fiction, definitely check out Cordwainer Smith (aka Paul Linebarger). Some of the finest early science fiction ever written.
