rico,

Thanks for the kind comments.

It's a conceit, but I purposely referred to Bowman and Poole collectively as "what's his name" to emphasize the impersonal nature of the characters. They really are hardly distinguishable in personality and not much of that anyway.

Yes, you're right about the bone becoming the bomb, but for me the shape and segmented horizontal configuration of the bomb looks purposely designed as a preview of the Jupiter craft- again to demonstrate this relationship that technology is used for destruction as well as exploration.

"Black and Decker" appears in Heywood's craft to the Moon - it is the food preparation machine.

A fun topic!

Cheers,

Bambi B
