Otto, I've been reading here on Pynchon-L for over a year and I've never
seen Jbor sign his name with any such name as Rob.

He doesn't sign it Jbor either, but it's better than calling him "best" all
the time

If he'd like me to address him by his given name, or any name at all, let
him sign (assign) it once in a while.

I expect you're right about what Rob (I'll do it for you, just this once : )
has been saying up until now.  He hasn't been exactly proposing an all out
war.  Makes you wonder what all the fuss is about, huh?

Cheers,

Barbara
