always been fond of the parabola, even from my younger days.  If I was 
paranoid, I'd say they were laying in weight for me.

PS Halfway through Mr. Mendelson's article on the encyclopedic 
GR--interesting contrast b/w pynchon's political usage of language as 
compared to Joyce's more "biological", natural progression of language in 
Ulysses.  Mendelson claims Pynchon's usage more relevant, since it is 
politicized.
