funny, after bragging about missing peyote nausea have spent the past

anybody else seeing not exactly light at the end of tunnel,
since it's been an illuminating experience, but sort of sensing that
the riemann space is folding back in on itself?
I mean, the action coming back to the Americas, rejoining Frank
who only wanted "a little more control over things" and whose
nature is easiest for a fairly workaday person like me to sympathize with
(I know I could never gamble like Reef, the best I can do in the visionary
department is nowhere near Kit (I get, rapturously, a few of the math concepts,
and a few of the ways the book works things out, but nothing very original)
I'm not nearly as self-deprecating as Cyprian)
especially the way he drifts into one thing after another and is
almost completely devoid of self-direction....
but yet he does arguably the craziest baddest thing in the book...
(not that I admire or agree with it, but...)
but anyway, musically if it was like a 5 movement symphony we
would be like hinting at the original theme and preparing for
a scherzo or something, wouldn't we?
anyway, great job, Jill, and Laura - keep up the good work!
