ATDTDA (5.1) - The Etienne-Louis Malus

            If you extend the ability of Iceland Spar to split 
            beams of light, to suggest that it can also split 
            beams of being, creating not parallel but tangential 
            worlds/realities/whatever - and I think Pynchon does 
            suggest that, in the current section - then if the world, 
            or reality, can be so split, cannot those divergent 
            worlds themselves then be split, and those, and those, 
            etc. until you have as many strands as you care to 
            imagine........


. . . .sounds just like magic(k?), don't it?
