: Hey, let's update Mr. Vance's work to reflect today's world.
Ooh--ooh--Dave, I got it! We'll cast Vance movies pan- Twentieth Century, scouring the vast archives of the Akashic Record for the presences of whatever souls "the comittee" must requisition. For instance: Alan Ladd for Adam Reith and Sydney Greenstreet for Aila Woudiver! Ronald Coleman for Cugel the Clever, and Dweezil Zappa also for Cugel, in the obligatory flash-back scenes! Marie Dressler for Dame Waldrop and Christina Ricci for Gastel Etzwane! Jerry Reed for Eustace Chilke! And can you see this next one--Linda Tripp for Madame Zigonie! Oh the fun we'll have rumpling time and space to wrest from repose the voices and faces that make us remark: "Just so."
