I once saw Lucifer's Hammer (by Niven & Pournelle) in a grocery store
here.  It was on a rack of religious books...  (And that same grocery, a
Kroger, has some fiend working there who keeps turning off the K and the
R in the sign, leaving OGER.  I'm not sure if the chap in question hates
his employer or the authors of The C Programming Language...  :-}
