Hhmmnn... A rather transparent missive; a pynchonesque touch. You have a way
with words, dbuck. The punctuation, too, is priceless.It adds to the biting 
irony of this obviously perspicaious cri de coeur. The etymological subtleties
which you have embedded (watch it now) in this cryptic, yet plaintive message
call to mind past mistresses and masters, from Big Bill S. to Vater Vladi
himself. I am too stunned to go on ... yet, I shall, I must, I could, I 
should, I might, I will, I have --- Damn, would that English had more 
modalities. But I digress. I will end with a typical dbuckian apothegm:


Wasn't that pregnant, yet terse? Fulsome, yet instructive. Sophomoric, yet...
Such, such are my joys, my jeus, my Joyce...
