serialisation of the first part of _Dune_. I think it had a Bonestell
cover. Of course, I can't lay my hands on it now...[1]

That's kind of sexist.
Not if it's generally true. My mom put away some xmas cards a couple of years ago and they still haven't been found. My nephew was staying over a couple of weeks ago at my parents so my mum put away his xmas present. Took two days to find it after he left....
My dad finally found it...
In our household, it's the other way 'round. >:)
That doesn't surprise me :)
