<<Now, what was that you were saying about the P-list
never discussing, before yesterday, the Nabokovs'
response to queries about Pynchon being his student?>>
I said nothing of the kind. And wouldn't have, since
I had recently posted on the topic myself. What I
said was that you remembered wrongly. Which you did.
You said:
<<So, a rumor that was disavowed by Nabokov himself
...>>
VN didn't disavow the rumor; he said he didn't recall
Pynchon. Vera, however, said she did.
As I posted on June 16:
<<Vera (in an account that, I believe, has been
challenged) remembered Pynchon's handwriting (from
Cornell) as a combination of written and printed
letters.>>
