  looking over an old journal from the late 90's, when i was
  roommates with Sheila Holtz, who eventually moved to
  Maine to edit Bern Porter International, i came across
  the following entry, something i had forgotten about:
 
  -
  bomb-making
  avant garde poet/artist Bern Porter
  appeared as an extra in the 1996
  film adaptation to Stephen King's
  novel THINNER (starring no one that
  i can ever recall seeing before, although
  Stephen King himself plays a nervous
  --and sexy, since he can't help himself--
  nerdy pharmacist)
 
  about 48 and one half minutes into
  the film when we enter the dream
  sequence of the Gypsy Carnival,
  Bern Porter and Sheila Holtz are
  visible for about 1 and one half
  seconds while standing in the
  audience before the 106-year-old
  Gypsy King named Lemke.  for the
  first half of the 1 and one half seconds
  we see them from behind, as a gypsy
  is picking Sheila's pocket.  Sheila is
  then smiling and laughing when the
  rest of the 1 and one half seconds
  shows them from the front.  they really
  should have given Bern a speaking role.

as reported here on the Fluxlist. I guess you missed
it. Carlo pittore was going to update us on the
funeral but not heard anything since.
