Okay.  In between SPAMMING, reading and some other writing today, I started preparing my opening hosting section....Monroe is right on, one can play Pynchon bingo from page 1 and who else ya gonna call? so curmudgeon Morris is still righter than ever, as he holds his ground, I now think, and why not take a week a chapter?....take 10 months to do it, allowing all the density some love into each chapter, all the back-and so-forth, all the time to let it bleed....bloviators like me will love it and so might the succinct who will have the time to distill......

Why not? What else so PYNCHON-rlevant we gonna do???
Lots of space for all the other digressions and spam that sort out the saved from the damned. 

A WEEK A CHAPTER....PUT IT IN YOUR SUBJECT LINE if you agree...
