[Mark Kohut]

Yeahp, you guys are right about that word. 
 
yes, P has (almost) no tradition and is anti-Tradition (in most senses) so that was not right. 
 
I did mean style/method, yes, everything and the hospital sink but also in the 'magical', near-surreal movement of images and idea.....silly
musical numbers, how Pynchon.....    the Olympics, Danny boy and Branagh  trying to
get The Industrial Revolution (!!) into an Olympics OC?!?.......and Bond & the Queen ...did you not have
a moment's association with the Chums and their balloon?....and Olde Happy Shire England (of the past)--
when communities were organic and more......the whole homage to workers all thru it..................
 
Glorified England more than TRP ever did America or England but, still......

"Tradition" isn't a good word choice here.  Maybe style or method, as
in "everything including the kitchen sink."
