AAAARRRGGGHHHH NO! No time. My plate is overflowing. Too big a teaching 
load, (18 units) including a class on UNIX for which I am woefully 
underprepared, and taking a class on Visual Basic with huge weekly 
projects that suck up time like crazy. I only read the Pynchon mail 
that's less than 2 lines long. That's why I saw yours! :)

Now back to VB projects...

It'd be nice to have a new insights on teaching Pynchon. I have my ideas but they're usually wrong-headed & too paratactic--

Any brief suggestions?
