Yeah, the spontaneously careful yet absolutely line by line excitement and
sublimity of Mason & Dixon is so boring for everyone (else) on the Plist.
It may be more "perfect' than GR; it is magnificent. But as my grandson
said when told it was his last soccer game this season, "Who cares?"

a Group Read keeps being asked for by many---for maybe a decade; maybe
longer---and yet, the stamina to keep talking
pales against the excitement of potentially arguing over the low down. Or
soapboxing. So it goes.

Joseph, whatever you believe, I think even you know you do not know WHAT
the MSM is saying. You don't follow it. And i bet our definitions differ
anyway. But I may be wrong and Who Cares?

( I wrote about what I've learned from you when you aren't this. You, once
again, have learned ??)

Preach, Joseph, preach. We all need to express ourselves as Shakespeare and
Nietzsche are always saying.

A--And the Plist accepts everything. A wonderful feature.

Plist parable from my first philosophy class: a sock gets a hole in it. A
patch covers it .Then, another hole appears. And it is patched too.
Another.
Then one day the sock owner notices that the sock is nothing but patches.

Is it the same sock?

I say the Pynchon List is no longer the Pynchon List, whatever nice free n'
easy thing it has evolved into.

Bye, Bye.
