Thinking of Hakim Bey, I've always wondered about the unattributed
influence TRP had in Bey's concept of Temporary Autonomous Zones.
While Bey gives a lot of historical antecedents, his description of the
political and social interactions in a TAZ and the interactions
described "In the Zone" of GR are remarkably similar. Plus Bey's
essays were written nearly a decade after the publication of GR.
