That's bugged me, like, for ever. Was this a part of the text or some illustration that may or may not be present in whatever edition I might be able to get my hands on?

no, it's not a part of any illustrations, sadly. it bugged me for a long time and when i finally found out, i was more bothered that i hadn't known it sooner. (i said the answer above.)

A revised list of books that have changed my life!
Books by Tom Robbins!
Books by Alan Watts!
Books by Robert Anton Wilson!
Books by Richard Bach!
Books by Miguel Ruiz!
Oh, and one book that I'm almost amazed that nobody here has mentioned yet: BE HERE NOW by Richard Alpert/Ram Dass. It's not the kind of book that you actually read and then ignore. If you get past the first quarter of the book, you're not going to walk away the same person you were when you started it.
If you see any books by the above authors in a used bookstore, buy them! They are worth the time and effort that it will take you to read them!
