Vonnegut & Heller Symposium

    
   "Vonnegut & Heller Symposium"
   
   I believe it was at LSU years ago, the twisted yet hilarious Vonnegut and very ordinary Heller speaking about novelization and World War 2.  Heller even admitted Vonnegut had it tougher in World War 2, which of course he did, offering things like:  "First you think you're too good-looking to die; next, you think your girlfriend loves you too much to die; then, you realize--you are going to die in war."
   The best moment was when a pseudo-intellectual chick stood up, asking Vonnegut:  "In your book Bluebeard, who was the protagonist, when was the turning point, what metaphor did the climax represent, blah, blah, blah?"
   To which of course the wit of Vonnegut replied:  "Madame--I don't even remember writing the book."
   The crowd went wild with laughter.
