GRGR(5) -Hidden Arches!

On the hidden arch--

Andrew and others have commented on Michael A.'s observation about the 
opening tones of CHEROKEE being kind of arch-shaped.  I really appreciate this 
observation because I have been looking for an appropriate moment to point out 
another hidden arch, a real significant one also, but since I missed the opening of 
the GRGR I haven't had a chance,  If you look at the opening paragraph of the 
novel-- that interesting seven-sentence paragraph w/ that immortal opening 
line--well, if you make a graph that charts words-per-sentence against the ordinals 
you'll see another of those stunning *A* shaped parabolas!  It's crazy!  Like Paul is 
dead clues, only real!  Can we find other hidden arches?
BTW, I passed this observation along to John Krafft awhile back (trying to get a note 
in PN) and he was moderately, but only moderately impressed.  The question 
was--did I see a real structure, was there a meaning here, or was it, you know, just 
another kute korrespondence.  Finding--two--such structures really strengthens 
the idea that there may be more, no?  Damme, I bet they're all over the place.

Where should we seek them?
