As forewarned, CERN has presser tomorrow on Higgs

[alice wellintown]

the essay seems to state the obvious: the work of art in the age of
mechanical reproduction, from marx, to jameson, benjamin, mumford, but
for pynchon it is Adams and not the subperstructure of marx, but no
matter, is a hoax, a lot auction of reproduced Recognitions wasteing
for the godot particle, so when the reviewer of cowart  complains that
cowart re-treads adams, as if this is an exhausted topic and that the
p-industry has done with it, we know this is sophamoric banter
burnished in academic kilns. of course p has not too much interest in
these parts, but in how they are enfestished, invested in the body, in
the sacred now profaned, though only in the minds of the cranks and
science minded priests of the new religion, life of the planet we call
Earth.

paul mentioned the jackpot studies of P; there are a few noteworthy
studies that are not merely cobbled academic pamphlets. eddins, as
noted in the review is the best.
