Well, IV will certainly enable Pynchon Walking Tours around the area.
God knows I've been sitting on googlemaps for how long here checking

Actually, I just noticed that the Manhattan Beach house Pynchon
apparently lived in during the 70s (as shown in "Journey into the mind
of P") is on a street that ends in a National Guard Armory. Creepy.
