Pyle was writing a book called WORKING TITLE. And posting it online.
Note Pyle's picture.
His white cotton painter pants, his white cotton T-shirt
with a pocket on it, a pen in the pocket, his Birkenstock sandals, his blaze orange
Velcro watchband, his sun tan.
Pyle was ex-military. The watchband held
a plastic Timex camper watch, like a GI wore.
He was an ex-skin diver.
He was a free diver with a face mask and a Hawaiian sling. Not scuba gear and an
Arbalète speargun.
Anna Roper used an Arbalète.

Well, actually, hers looks homemade too.
