Did I say every? that doesn't sound right.
hmmmm, hyberbolic?
"Every" is representative of a large class of English
words and expressions that are singular in form but
felt to be plural in sense. The class includes, for
example, noun phrases introduced by every, any, and
certain uses of some.
The sum of the symptoms and causes is not equal to the
parts Mason experiences.
He has some and some he has not.
chit!
Multi-dimensional language is made into
one-dimensional language, in which different and
conflicting meanings no longer interpenetrate but are
kept apart; the
explosive historical dimension of meaning is silenced.

Back to big dicks and W I guess.
See, I told you it's about the rockets, boys.
Mason waves to the amature star gazers
they peep through the bushes
from guard stations
from bridges
end of M&D
On guard by the bridge of Carquinez
With his eyes on the evening star, Venus,
With a sky full of blimps
and his tent full of imps
and an incredible length in his telescope
this amuture star gazer from Waste
typed up his obs with such haste
that he mixed up his sums
symptoms, zeros and ones
and his causes and clauses and somes
