It was plenty of fun, I can assure you!<br /><br />I have some reservations as well, in particular with Ellery Queen. I've yet to read S. A. Steeman but I've found two of his books, placed some omnibuses on Interlibrary Loan, and am eagerly scouring PriceMinister trying to stop myself from clicking the "purchase now" button...
