Thanks for the lead. /Arkansas Biography/ is searchable
at Google Books! Of course the beauty of Wikipedia is that
it's not "my" article, so anyone here or elsewhere can be
just as inspired to improve that article as I am.

However, I can tell Jansy that I was not the one inspired
to post a Zen story about the "real" and "unreal". I
didn't know that story till I saw it here.
