Play around with the title for a few minutes. Start with the last three letters.

Oh I'm aware 😉 I have an old copy of his short story compilation, "Buy Jupiter" and he comes right out and says it in the author's notes.

You'll appreciate this story about a story.

Asimov once wrote a science fiction mystery about a murder committed during a game of pool.

He gave it to the editor with the title 'Billiard Ball.'

The editor liked it, but he told Isaac that a punnier title would have be "Dirty Pool."
