Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

35 years or so ago I read a scifi short story about a musician with a symbiote named Icky I believe.

If anybody knows the author and or name of it, I'd really appreciate it.

Obviously it made an impression if I'm recalling it now.

It had a really sad ending that was very moving.

Also, does anybody else really want badly to see A.E.Van Voght's Resurrection / The Monster made into a film ?
