<p class="ydpcde0dadyiv6488651605MsoNormal"><i>Yossarian</i> - the very sight of the name made him
shudder. There were so many esses in it. It just had to be subversive. It was
like the word <i>subversive</i> itself. It was like <i>seditious</i> and
<i>insidious</i> too, and like <i>socialist</i>, <i>suspicious</i>,
<i>fascist</i> and <i>Communist</i>. It was an odious, alien distasteful name,
that just did not inspire confidence. It was not at all like such clean, crisp,
honest American names as Cathcart, Peckem and Dreedle.</p>
