Saunders on TRP

>  This is called a straw man argument.

Silly me, I didn't even see the strawman. I thought it was what
advanced students of rhetoric call a ghostman argument. The implied
claim that Pynchon is a Buddhist etc. & Co....

That will teach me to take my eyes off the corn.

The proportion the price of grain takes
Of the pay that a poor nation makes
Is more, as a rule,
For a serving of gruel
Than a similar serving of flakes.
