Hi Rob,

that's no problem at all - i can receive mail at my university email address 
(which i'll send to you shortly - i don't use it for the list because it's 
not big enough to cope with the traffic of lists, generally speaking) - it'd 
be great to have a read of that since Pynchon's making up an inordinately 
huge part of my current study (with city literatures and subcultures as 
well). I'd be hugely grateful.

Cheers
Sean
