(pic from town of bloom, via miekal and on fb: "When my father was in law school in the early ‘80s, one of his classmates visited the criminal ward at Mendota on a tour, and brought back a story about Ed. Apparently the classmate, recognizing Gein in a dayroom, lagged behind the rest of the tour, and went to speak with him. After a few minutes of small talk with this 'normal, quiet old man,' the visitor decided to cut to the chase, and asked him: 'Ed, if they let you out right now...' 'Yes?' said Ed. 'Would you... do it again?' Ed’s eyes lit up, and the years dropped away, as he leaned in and said, in a voice trembling with excitement... 'Well..? You never know.' " --Nathan McQuillen)
