Which brings up my latest question: According to the maps I've been 
able to find online (which you'd think would be an easy thing, but 
they're all geared to tourism), Surrey is near London. However, one 
reviewer wrote "(t)hey sense the pain of his miserable return visits 
to London". So was this just another of this guy's "flints", like 
referring to Transformation class, or is Surrey considered part of 
London like various US suburbs are being swallowed up by big cities? 
It looked like a county, not a city. 

Beth, who needs to find a better map....
