Why do all roads lead to Camelot? Again, I'm suggesting that the
reader has constructed a road and taken it there. That road needs to
veer off the pages of the work under consideration and, after this
strong reading builds a road, it also builds a rocket and takes a deep
voyage into the ever expanding universe of conspiracy. The text (IV)
is left behind as the reader responds to echoes of notes he or she is
tuned into. Because those notes are played from a constellation of
instruments or conspiracy texts about a conspiracy the size of the
sun, the tiny voice of the text is left standing on the launch
platform pointing to the inherent virtues of the text. Alas, the
rocket readers have landed in the desert, a high Howard Hughs at the
helm.
