Whiz-bang new searchable hypertext Pynchon-l archive

[Oliver Xymoron]

Shortly after Pynchon-l moved to WASTE, and after some discussions with
Andrew, I started writing a keyword search engine for Pynchon-l. After
showing a beta to Murthy and Andrew several months ago, I set it aside for
a while to work on other things (like keeping WASTE running). This
weekend, owing to a strange dream I had about getting my copy of M&D a few
days early, I picked it up again and I'm to a point where I think it's
ready for some visitors.

So hop on over to the Pynchon-L homepage and try it out:

  http://www.waste.org/pynchon-l/

Feedback appreciated. And, as always, you can recommend your favorite
Pynchon links on the bottom of the page.
