Bio"The cartoon man drives his cartoon car into the cartoon town and runs over a real man. The real man is not badly hurt -- the cartoon car is virtually weightless after all, it's hardly any worse than getting a cut lip from licking an envelope -- but the real man feels that a wrong has nevertheless been done him, so he goes in search of a policeman. There are no real policemen around, so he takes his complaint to a cartoon policeman. The cartoon policeman salutes him briskly and, almost without turning around, darts off in the direction of the accident, but the real man is disconcerted by the way the policeman hurries along about four inches above the pavement, taking five or six airy steps for every one of his own and blowing his whistle ceaselessly. It's as though they were walking side by side down two different streets. The cartoon town, meanwhile, slides past silently, more or less on its own."
