are you familiar with
the novel, "Christopher Unborn" by Carlos Fuentes? He has
a section where Borges visits the Mississippi River and wants to drink
a glass of water from it in tribute to Mark Twain. Since he's blind,
and Argentinean, they gave him a glass of Pepsi instead figuring he'd
never know the difference.
