Alas, too little. And too late. (And too many lies.)

For newcomers and others --

You might like to type "half name" (in double inverted commas) into the
p-list archive search engine (at http://waste.org/mail/) and see if you
can sort out the sycophants from the personas. It isn't hard. (Apologies
to cjhurtt who is neither of these. Neither, of course, now, am I.) 

Now, what was the name of that critic who wrote that article which kept
getting spammed across the aether here for months and months? I know.
I'll just type "magic eye" (double inverted commas again) into that same
search engine.

"delores haze" and "ian scuffling" might turn you up some interesting
"coincidences" also, I'd say.

Just the type of board game I'm good at. But Pynchon it ain't.

hohoho
