whoah yeah I never made that connection, neato. I need to read TR again soon, it's a wonderful book but my first time I around I seriously misread a couple stuff where it got dense with allusions.

Speaking of WG though, his essays are phenomenal if you haven't read them, Rush For Second Place in particular. They have that novelist touch so it doesn't feel like a typical polemic.
