I suspect that I made that insinuation by posting that all the  
reprints of Pynchon's early stories were bootlegs. I guess that the  
much-reprinted [and rather dire] "Entropy" should also be mentioned  
here.

Of course, "Slow Learner" came out as all the reprints started to turn  
into bootlegs.
