... Seed (The Fictional Labyrinths of Thomas Pynchon) also reminded me that
the Adolf Hitler character in The Great Dictator was named Adenoid Hynkel.
Note not only that giant Adenoid i GR, of course, but that, later in the
novel, Richard M. Zhlubb is described as having an "adenoidal" voice as well
(sorry, V.-ing now, no GR at hand, for the first time in some time), recall
that "managerial Volkswagen" of his (and recall upon whose initiative the
Volkswagen was put into production ...), recall "Sick Dick and the
Volkswagens" from The Crying of Lot 49, and so forth ...
