Wiki

[Lary Wallace]

Easy there, Pirate; I was just messing around, as pynchonoid seems to understand. I took care to express my gratitude toward those who, unlike myself, are making it all happen. But you're right: I should be contributing, and now that I know I can, I probably will, assuming the registration etc. isn't too complicated. There's only so much I'm capable of doing when it comes to that stuff. Also, I _have_ been reading slowly, much more slowly than many of my Chums of 'Chon, who've been braving the higher altitudes, and reporting back on the vistas to be glimpsed from way up there. Thanks to all, with respect and gratitude.

WTF? The novel came out two days ago, dude, and if you're in such a
hurry perhaps you should slow down by contributing to the wiki,
yourself. In fact, I recommend it for two reasons: 1) AtD is something
to savor, and 2) half the fun of Pynchon's historical novels is
finding out about all this crazy stuff, even the stuff he mentions
without further explanation.

The page-by-page annotations are so far almost entirely separate from
the Alpha content, so it's not simply a matter of reorganization: this
stuff's being written from scratch.
