I've just started reading THE FOOLS IN TOWN ARE ON OUR SIDE
(1970) by Ross Thomas. There's a big, expensive new trade
paperback edition out. Thomas is well-regarded on the list,
and I looked through the archives and found a number of
mentions:
Mr. Moore during Washington month:

Some people mentioned this ATLANTIC article: http://www.theatlantic.com/issues/96nov/hiss/hiss.htm
Lots of talk about CHINAMAN'S CHANCE when it was a book of
the month: http://www.miskatonic.org/rara-avis/archives/200008/
No-one ever mentioned meeting Thomas, though, and it's always
interesting to hear what a writer was like. Did any of you
know him or meet him? What sort of a gee was he?
