GRGR(22): He knows as well as he has to

[Jeremy Osner]

On p. 490, Slothrop "knows as well as he has to that it's the S-Geraet
after all that's been following him, it and the pale plastic ubiquity of
Laszlo Jamf." This -- although as much has been hinted at all along --
is as clearly and forthrightly as we have seen it stated yet. Could this
tie in with how as Paul said, Slothrop "is getting pretty flakey about
this time"? -- He is starting to fully believe the paranoia rather than
just suspect. -- On the other hand whilst under the influence a few
nights ago, my reaction to reading that line was, "Yes! He's finally
beginning to understand!" Whether enlightenment or insanity, major
changes are underway.

--
Both Melissus and Parmenides argue fallaciously,
and they make false assumptions and their reasonings
are not logical; but the argument of Melissus is the
more wearisome, for it sets no problem, but granted
one strange thing, others follow; and there is no
difficulty in this.
