I've been meaning to beg the Pynchon folks for a clue to this, as well.
Do you think Buckaroo possibly could have been Pynchon-influenced,
and if not, what is the generator of both these Yoyodynes?

I suspect it will take reaching back into deep 1940s/1950s collective
unconciousness, but Im confident you folks know the answer.  now, tell.
