Perhaps there are a some authors unwilling to discuss their work with an 
interested audience. Perhaps the few hundred yards from Bryson's home to the 
lecture hall was just too far for him to walk. And, just perhaps, Bryson had no 
answers. Unless we hear from the author, we'll never know. As far as Bryson's 
stature as a best selling author is concerned, and the inference that WITW is a 
"classic," popularity has seldom been an accurate measure of quality.
