/ The Bulwer-Lytton fiction contest is held ever year at San Jose State         
| Univ.  by Professor Scott Rice.  It is held in memory of Edward George        
| Earle Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873), a rather prolific and popular (in his        
| time) novelist.  He is best known today for having written "The Last          
| Days of Pompeii."                                                             
|                                                                               
| Whenever Snoopy starts typing his novel from the top of his doghouse,         
| beginning "It was a dark and stormy night..." he is borrowing from Lord       
| Bulwer-Lytton.  This was the line that opened his novel, "Paul Clifford,"     
| written in 1830.  The full line reveals why it is so bad:                     
|                                                                               
|         It was a dark and stormy night; the rain fell in torrents -- except   
|         at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of     
|         wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene   
|         lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty
\         flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness.
