....Maybe one of you Ayn Rand fans might talk a bit about how her work 
relates to Pynchon?>>

Nice legwork, Scoop.  "Ayn Rand and Thomas Pynchon" yielded ten pages of 
hits.   Including this: 

Knut Hamsen: Someone needs to kill Thomas Pynchon. I, for one, have had 
enough oh his shit. That masturbatory, academia fetishist. The only people 
who think this guy is any good are virgin college boys. And what's this 
supposed to be? Humor? Scheky Green is funnier than this guy. His humor is 
pure katskills, baby. Ah, but I'm not bitter.

Ayn Rand: I just loathe that Knut Hansen degenerate. Scribbler of pseudo-nazi 
melodramas and wanking diatribes against trivial noodniks like Pynchon, he 
has the brains of a flea. Besides, my balls are far hairier than his.

Knut Hamsen: Ayn Rand has many faults, but nice hairy parts.

Ayn Rand: Stop the shrugging Atlas!

Knut Hamsen: But the earth will go spinning off into the void!

Ayn Rand: No, Atlas is holding it still, ha ha.

Knut Hamsen: Tell him to turn it around the other way, would ya? I'm trying 
to get some sleep.

Not exactly SJ Perelman, but what the hell.  

The point is to post.

Because there are people on this list who want to hear the truth about Ayn 
Rand.  For my part I will, forthwith, NP the list with internet references to 
Ayn Rand, so to combat the mainstream press's slanted view of her.  My only 
criterion will be that they are long, tedious, and inaccurate.  

Many people have posted me offlist urging me to do so and thanking me for my 
efforts thusfar.  To them I say "You're welcome!  Glad to do it!  I'll pray 
for you!"
