"Alice" writes some good stuff, but was there ever anyone on the historical
P-Liste who wrote anything quite so boring or badly written? If the
effective affective voice is intentional, one, or perhaps all, must
(should?) ask, "why?"

Why does race ALWAYS matter?  Why does it excuse bad recapitulations of
thoughts that weren't well reasoned to begin with?  Why need it do itself a
disservice, e.g. the political and health shows on WPFW, http://www.wpfw.org

Both, Beatles & Stones, rose out of the major post war class struggle,
although both were working class, there were quite serious battles
over the angry young sons of the greates generation and this ebbed and
flowed across the pond. I' d say that this is one of the major major
themes of Pynchon's works. Obvious enough,  I suppose, or not, but
clearly to those who lived through it. The questions of race always do
muddy the waters, but as West sez, Race Matters ...But all wage,
labour, and capital flows of fear, fear of that blues, that working
class anti-hero blues. We ain't for hire, hang fire.
