While we're on the subject, the original article mentioned "the Nova Police"
as appearing in "Buckaroo Banzai"; I've not seen the movie (yet), nor read
anything by William Burroughs (yet), but I remember the Nova Police mentioned
as something from Burroughs' writing.  It sounds like there's More to
"Buckaroo Banzai" Than Meets the Eye... - all the more reason to catch it.

(P.S. I second your comment on Pynchon.)
