I'm fascinated by this word 'Inklings', having never heard the term
before. I take it that's the name for a particular group of writers
rather than a movement in writing?
It's the name C S Lewis, J R R Tolkien and others gave themselves when
they used to meet as a discussion group of sorts in Oxford in the
1930s and onwards. Google for Inklings and you get quite a lot -
Wikipedia's not bad.

Drattit, I was going to sig that. <g> The one line in all those books
that warranted it, I thought.
:-) Room for both of us, why not?
