Banana peels

The UT server declined to send the message below yesterday. It 
*may* agree to do it in five days, it announced in a warning 
boomerang message, but I'd like to get it out of the way.

Yet more VU-like NYC bands may be Pynchonesque, too. _Gravity's Rainbow_
(the best book to me) and _Marquee Moon_ (the best record to me) seem both
warped offspring of American Transcendentalism. Since it is, after all,
*Cadillac* that takes "Marquee Moon's" Orphic narrator to the graveyard.
