Re-donning Karl Popper's bowler-hat/melon (significantly known in
Scouse as a "blocker!"), we carefully compare the two implications:

(i) IF Shade = Kinbote-Botkin THEN expect strong evidence in
overlapping content/style/clues of Cantos/Commentary

(ii) IF strong evidence of overlapping content/style/clues THEN Shade
= Kinbote-Botkin.

Dear Stan,

Thanks for the [oh] ho-my-god (did I get it?) joke.

The only logician I can stomach, and then not for long, is the guy
named Elsie with the babies and the crocodiles. Here's my favorite
Popper (nothing against the philosopher, but I doubt I have the iq and
certainly not the time, to tackle him --- even platonically)






your friend in Plato,
Carolyn
