I was going to post about how I was just in Malaysia and I didn't see TRACE
ONE of any damn Dobbstown.

But I decided that Dobbstown was probably trampled to the ground in the Fake
X-Day '98 debacle.

Then I was going to post some damn gibberish and call it a "rant".

But I decided that that would require effort.

So, instead, I have this to say:

How come the Dobbshead on the back of Three-Fisted Tales is reversed? Huh?
Is that THE BACK OF "BOB'S" HEAD? Or am I looking into a MIRROR? Did reading
3FT turn me INTO "BOB" for a moment?

I'm looking at it, and it seems clear to me that the perspective is that
you are in the front seat of a car about to drive into the BACK of a
transparent Dobbshead, almost like a force-field printed on the inside
with images of Dobbs. Once you're through it and look behind you, he'll
be un-reversed again.

You were looking in the wrong Malaysia. It's in the other one.
