Pynchon is leading us to the Rockefellers throughout
Rainbow with combination words, puns, and corruptions,
Numerous characters call Slothrop Rocky and fella,
though never Rocky, fella. Just as the Tristero leads
to Thurn and Taxis leads to the Rothschilds leads to
the Morgans leads to Pynchon & Co. and to
DISINHERITANCE; the Harrimans and the Whitneys (28),
Allen Dulles (268), Winthrop (630), Thomas E. Dewey
(636), Mark Hanna (664), Richard M. Zhlubb (754), and
“Standard Awl” (565) point to the DISINHERITORS.
Though he never names them, Those Who Know, know....
