Don't nuke it, his link doesn't work. EDIT: might as well mention that in my opinion DFW has happened upon the perfect phrase, as he so often does, to describe the situation -- it takes considerable "intellectual gymnastics" to allow yourself to eat a lobster and not feel bad in that indefinable way. But lobsters apparently taste good, I've never had one, so people do it anyway. This is human nature. The end.
