I've been reading along with PF but not posting much, unfortunately.
However, my two-cents worth:

1.  I still enjoy reading the PF posts in that they help "guide" my reading
of the novel to certain degree, but

2.  I remain woefully disappointed in the lack of Pynchon-related context
throughout this read, despite the assurances early in June that such
connections would be "inevitable."

I realize a few folks have gotten caught up in annotating the various and
sundry components of the novel itself, not to mention the scholarly
exploration of the incest motif (which I hope to see published some day,
Keith!!).  But, to be frank, I see little justification for the existence of
the PF read in this particular forum.

Here's hoping someone proves me wrong.

Respectfully,

Tim
