From Encounters on a Strange Planet--a book
still to be written--we share with you the following:
~ . . They stood there, in all sizes and shapes, not
seeming to take much notice of each other s misery.
There appeared to be about 150 of them but I found it
hard to count, even though they barely moved. Their
contorted facial expressions and the gasping and groan-
ing sounds they made were very disconcerting to me.
More than anything else , though, the coats were
what first caught and held m.y attention. They were
much too small. Buttons add zippers were being
strained to the limit and seams threatened to tear at the
sides. Their bodies bulged against the overstretched
fabric as if the contents had been stuffed in with tre-
mendous effort.
When I approached one particularly pitiful-look-
ing creature and extended my hand (as is our custom
when greeting a friend or introducing ourselves to a
new acquaintance), she could not lift her arm even as
much as two inches. Her jacket was so constraining as
to render her practically immobile. Her face was quite
puffed and rather bluish and she was struggling for
breath. She eventually whined an apology. "You see, I
can t move my arms," she got out between gasps. I
thought tears began to appear in her eyes.
"It s your coat," I said.
