Ah, so now it's all insignificant. Good stuff. Nice to see you try to gain 
some distance from that pseudo-guff about 'The Light' you were trying to 
peddle earlier. What, should we maybe give the kid another ten-fifteen years 
to earn his significance and see if he merits 'Dmitri' status as the 
mystical 'key-holder' to unlock all that hitherto unknown significance.

Yeah, and if I ever clamp eyes on a National Equirier Pynchon-Special, no 
doubt I'll be the first to let you know.

What was the point, really....
