VLVL2 (1) Zoyd's WORK=?US-ASCII?Q?=A0?=

[mjoseph at rci.rutgers.edu]

Yes, exactly. Dreamed up for a child by a child - the kind of 
self-sufficiency of a child left alone ... to get into trouble, or not. 
We see this a little differently (what else is new?): I see Zoyd's 
violence here as essentially hedonic, display, Wigstock, not the 
banality of evil -- that old saw (wink).

Thanks.
