you guys seem pretty good at speculating about random cnn photos and
pulling wicks cherrycoke oed fantasies out of yr asses so i'm
wondering how much you've made of the ig farben source to gr. i've
read sasuly's text and i'm wondering if you suckas have followed
*that* back. ended up at some pretty interesting kilgore reports in
1946.. some very paranoid musings by senators about russia, some very
paranoid newspaper reports about the kilgore committee being
defunded. also a neat book called "riddle of the rhine." i guess the
best thing i can say is that gravity's rainbow quotes works that
extensively quote other works. a "progressive knotting into" eh? 
what i haven't found is conclusive proof that pynchon was into these
other books. in a way, it doesn't matter, but i'm working on a paper
(of course) on the subject and just want to know what you guys have
found. and don't tell me that jules siegel's yr resident expert on the
eliminations of german capacity for war. :)

i heard a rumor that pynchon wrote for "the real ghostbusters" and did
the voiceover for slimer.
