The best ending to any writer's interview ever?

Paris Review asks Ray Bradbury about the origins of a character named Mr Electrico. His answer starts in our world, opens a trapdoor in the fabric of reality itself, and surges into an elemental realm of cosmic myth. Genuine magic

Thanks to @Sam__Weller for the magical interview & thanks to EVERYONE for their stories in this thread: it's rare to see twitter being so joyful, it does the heart good.
