Gah! It seems that masters of web-irony at _Suck_ magazine have done a
little dropping of TRP's name without backing it up by doing something
like..I don't know...maybe READING HIS BOOKS. There's a passing reference
to the "pigheaded Slothrops in Washington," and although the dejanews link
has expired or otherwise run off, I somehow doubt that it would let them
off the hook. Well, first _Newsweek_ misattributed that Rilke quote ("To
the rushing water speak...," no less) and now _Suck_ has failed the Pynch
awareness test. Aww geez, where am I gonna get my news now?
