<< It appears to me that this excerpt from The Morning News - Lone Star 
Statements, by Matthew Baldwin is referring to GR as the "obese man 
[etc.]" rather than what I would think (though I kind of like Vonnegut, 
limitedly), i.e., the other way around...?! What do you guys think? 
Which one is the author of the quote - whoever he/she is - favoring? (I 
know, it could be either...)>>

GR is the fat man if the writer has any sense of structure.  I also 
suppose he's saying that GR is bloated and  whereas S5 is lean and fast.
