Very interesting questions! Esp. you...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />Very interesting questions! Esp. your question about HOW John Carter was able to leave behind his body on Earth and STILL somehow be PHYSICALLY present on Barsoom. Yes, literary standards were far looser when ERB was writing his Barsoon stories. He was able to take liberties and leave impossible loose ends hanging that later writers would not have been allowed to get away with.<br /><br />Rather a pity Poul Anderson never tried his hand at writing a John Carter pastiche. After all, he wrote a novel featuring Robert Howard's Conan the Cimmerian. To say nothing of various Sherlock Holmes pastiches!<br /><br />SeanSean M.
