>From the reader comments:

"Judging by the letter he wrote in support of McEwan after the whole
'gentian violent' thing Pynchon writes with a typewriter, He
namechecks the Lettera 22 in Inherent Vice: I wouldn't be at all
surprised if he uses one of those. They are elegant and beautiful and
reassuringly simple objects. They don't allow you to waste your time
writing comments on CiF either."
