8. Wolfe's day job for many years was as an engineer for Proctor and Gambles, where he helped develop the Pringle's stacked chip. Amazingly, he also looked like Mr. Pringle.pic.twitter.com/sASRhWo9LW

9. Anyways, here are my deeper reflections on the life and work of Gene Wolfe (RIP). Perhaps of interest to anyone who cares about Catholicism and/or science fiction.

I'm reading his best short fiction now, and it's remarkable. His prose is awe-inspiring.
