Is it safe to assume that the title, while ultimately referring to the set of radar stations, is an allusion to the Marshall McLuhan quote: "I think of art, at its most significant, as a DEW line, a Distant Early Warning system that can always be relied on to tell the old culture what is beginning to happen to it"? (Or are you just a bigger Rush fan than we thought?) Anyway, perfect for a Canadian anthology!
