I only buy it to read the "interview", mama-san

I see. So it was a *secret* interview, was it? Cloak and dagger. Hidden
mikes. A shoe phone. Wow.

Get real. This "verification" is - and was always - a joke. Has there been
any acknowledgement that Pynchon, or his agent, or his publisher, even knows
about it? It's been 14-odd months.
