"Gravity dips due to Antarctic ice loss."--no irony here

[Mark Kohut]

 articles all over many science sites.

Maybe that is what the Trespassers came back to tell us in Against the Day?

I hope I can learn somehow, before entropy slows me to stillness,
how TRP hit on and decided to change the title from Mindless
Pleasures---which has many resonances but
seems a quite different overarching meaning (sometimes)---to Gravity's
Rainbow.

"it has happened before but there is nothing like it now."

His overarchingness of metaphor never ceases to amaze. Me anyway.
