NPPF -- no need to relate to Pynchon

Of course not (I don't know about the Pale Fire
readers who aren't P-listers, of course).  I'm just
wondering why these Pynchon readers can't make a
discussion of Pale Fire illuminate Pynchon's works, as
they said they would.  Nothing has been published yet
in this discussion of Pale Fire that's been found
inappropriate for the moderated, highly-focused
Nabokov list -- that should tell you something about
which forum is best suited for it.

I remain happy to see a consensus forming around the
idea that any topic is OK for discussion here as long
as enough of the Pynchon readers on Pynchon-L want to
discuss it, as opposed to the focus of Pynchon-L as
defined at http://www.waste.org/pynchon-l.  That's an
significant shift for a handful of folks who have
previously ruled discussion of Pynchon's politics off-topic.
