What I found amusing about the reactions to my suggestion that it was a
mistake was the denial that it was an error at all and the tortured attempts
to make incorrect Yiddish somehow a variant that I was unaware of and
Pynchon, the goy, knew better.

Well, at least Mascaro agrees that it someone was mistaken -- whether
"George Washington" or Thomas Pynchon.
