True. Very rich in symbolism, that pulley. SS, OSS, Pisces, "Yin and
yang. Yin and yang..." And how about those lesbian elephants?

I think we shouldn't worry about whether an observation is old news or
not. Few of us are around who remember, few of us care. Fewer still
will have anything "original" to say about a book that has generated so
many thousands of tons of futile academic paper and used up so many
terrabytes of memory on so many servers and PCs and Macs. 

Maybe my heart just isn't in this anymore...
Where's Terrance?
