TRP and Godzilla, misc.

[Mark Kohut]

I would believe TRP is still working and always will...........
   
  but rich surely nailed the Pandemonium story. TRP is a constant jokester. 
  Remember the fiction, I remind myself.

Which leads me to think - even though it isn't implied - that writing about things he is not experienced in concerns the older Pynchon. Maybe, in the same line of thought, he abandoned the Godzilla idea because he feels distant from the Eastern culture.
About Pandemonium of the Sun, well, it could have been a title meant for M&D, but I rather think like Page and not loose my hope that a new book will be published.

i think this is a Pynchon joke--he must've just read Blood Meridian
where that phrase is used to end one of the early chapters.
