Hi all--

read the review yesterday--it is very informative and the author does
note one of Pynchon's sources for ATD.

i'm starting to understand the views on a superficial level of the
vectorists and quaternions--this piece really helped.

still trying to get my head around how you can add three squares
(i,j,k) and get a negative number

best
