Dear Don,
This is only tangentially related, but Jim Schnabel's _Remote Viewers: The
Secret History of America's Psychic Spies_, quotes the Boyd biography on page
229.
It is an odd place to find VN, but there it is, and it's all about the living
sending messages to the living, as per Carolyn's query (I think; I haven't
really read the book, but did flip through it at a grocery store and was
surprised to find my favorite writer in this weird context):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0440614058/
I've been thinking that it might be neat to create a third page for odd and
unlikely Nabokov references--one for material that doesn't fit neatly in either
Nabokovlia
http://www.fulmerford.com/waxwing/nabobilia/nabobilia.html
or NaboPop
http://www.fulmerford.com/waxwing/nabopop/nabopop.html
_Lolita's Riddle_ would be in there. As would other oddball Nabokov-related
material. It'd be nice to find Nabokovilian grafitti, Kinbote-brand toasters,
stuff of that sort. If it exists.
Also: I am heading to Las Vegas (PhD in literature at UNLV) and am auctioning
off some stuff, some of it Nabokov-related (the Ardis pictorial biography and
the butterfly-issue of the Atlantic, maybe some more later). If you feel the
list might be interested, feel free to pass along this link:

Chapter 20
The spurting flames in the dream were visibly scarlet and red depending on
the height of the viewpoint but made no fumes while real fire had no colors
but suffocated Person. I am afraid that is not covered by PhD thesis of
resourceful Joanne Deirdre Morgan and we won't find here a particle of
cognitive dissonance even if Dr Freud will be habitually placed out of line
in the committee. All dreams are anagrams of diurnal reality, as one
prodigious child said. Person opened the right window in first dream killing
his wife in the process. But he opened the door of his current room on the
forth floor as if that was the window of coveted room 313 on the opposite
side of the building, thus loosing his chance to survive. And his Father
could not forgive his son Giulia Romeo on the eve of own death.
