I don't see the connection. I was a heavy B. reader in my day. But I remember him mentioning a Chesterton story where the machine eats its master. B. introduces me to Chesterton, to the Sartor Resartor, to the Bible, to Cthullu --- and then I can't even read enough English. Now, long after I've made B.'s break --- that it's all right, it's necessary --- I see how great his influence is in almost everything, bc culture is not a package of flooring you can buy one a day. It's a big warehouse of everything you can't buy, but in one lot.
