Dale's astounding ego

[MASCARO at humnet.ucla.edu]

r norton wonders why Dale would quote such "an astounding piece
 of dreck."
My own question is:  how does one get to be 
Pynchon Underworld  Ground Zero
without having read much of Pynchon?

Dale, I know you didn't write the quote, but really, r norton
has it right; get this crap off of the air.  It should
embarrass you.
