Who can know? Jay Bore should explain his meaning here
not me. It all started with a stupid essay. Doug
posted it for Jay Bore. Jay Bore set up one of
his list destroying binaries--constructed/divine.
Next, we are all stuck with their BS. Jay Bore
states the unstated, what the author means but doesn't
say. And how does Jay Bore know what the unstated is?
He doesn't. Been around a university Phil?
No thanks. My position is clear enough. We can all
pull a passage out of any book and post it but it means
nothing.

Sasuly is not the best book on the subject but it is
the book that Pynchon used. do you think Pynchon's
understanding of IG is very different from Sasuly?
I don't.
"From its birth IG Farben had been at war with the
rest of the world, with the United States as a main
target."
Sasuly, Ending? -- U.S.A.
