@darius surprised to see this while he’s still alive, and worried it’s a bad sign re: any future outputβ€”does this mean he’s incapacitated/near death? 😟

@scott I think doing it while he is still alive is good. It means that he can have input as part of the process. It's not uncommon for people to donate their papers to archives while they're still living.

And I mean, the man is 85. He is pretty much near death by default. I was pleased we got Bleeding Edge.

Wait... isn't Pynchton still alive though?

@enkiv2 Yes but living people often donate their papers to institutions, and doing it while you are alive is the best way to ensure that it is done to your liking

I guess that makes sense. It means the collection wouldn't be complete; I'm more familiar with it being done as part of a will
