That same page ALSO had an interview with one of the best living writers today in any medium I think, David Milch the tv guy. I've come to think of Milch as a living god working in the medium of his day, but in the NTY's story about his new upcoming HBO 'surf noir' drama, Milch at one point wanders into a wingnutty riff about aliens and how he thinks he "is an instrument of powers I do not fully understand... I am meant to tell stories that will have an impact on us as a species." Leading me to wonder if my favorite tv writer is using drugs again, or just fundamentally going off into the berkeley of the mind that is schizophrenia...
