It's just fun. Moby_Dick is a very cool novel and I guess, I don't know
how since I don't know a soul on this list, only met the distinguished
Charles Hollander--a brilliant guy even if he was so unfortunate  to be
infected by the Tom Pynchon bug, a minor pest in the oil for such a man,
whom, as well know, could tech us all about so many things, music of
course and black talk and history and &Co, and life,  but I'm a pest so
I don't expect even Doug to buy me a drink, not that i DRINK EITHER
grape or gain, taken the pledge as we Bronx brothers say, but I sure
would like to smoke a blunt with Kai if this Internet puppet play
doesn't add up to more than paranoid silly ness. And it doesn't!@ 

I'm in the book. 

Thanks to the folks willing to climb the white mountains with, I'll be
there if I'm werlcome. 

Peace out, 

PS learned a lot RJ, you the man, thanks Doug, got your politics deep in
my bones and in my hammer, CK,  could see that on Sunday or
Mayday....and Dave, gee thanks buddy, you Kool and caring and Baily, you
got the patience of Dewey, McKeon, Dillworth, Watson, Rudenburge and
that's saying something. 

God bless and may you be in heaven long before the devil knows you're
dead.
