      From: kludge@panix.com              In article <10eq7v9$388eh$1@dont-email.me> you write:       >Also, note that Meyer Wolfsheim says Gatsby was educated at       >"Oggsford College". Aside from the pronunciation, it's not Oxford       >College, it's the University of Oxford, which consists of       >forty-three "colleges" of varying sorts. [-ecl]              I think this is very deliberate in terms of showing who Wolfsheim       is, much in the way that the unused library helps show who Gatsby is.              For an interesting sidelight, read the book and note every use of the       telephone.       --scott       --       "C'est un Nagra.
