People are either loving [3] the nod to Thomas Pynchon (specifically, the first line of Gravity's Rainbow [4]) or hating [5] it.
One person took issue not with the Pynchon reference, but with the subhead [6]: "But it was not a huge meteor."
Interestingly, online, the Globe went all boring [2], replacing the Pynchon with "Meteorite alarms residents in Russian city."
