To Speculate or Not To Speculate?

I definitely want a semiotic (preferably 9mm) handgun and a Fnord sportscar!

Nope. Not scared away. I'm just dealing with a number of things and post-production fries me. I'll be at least a little more with it in a week or so, after EP207 is released

	Something about the newest ep made me think about other approaches to conspiracy fiction (or at least fiction with conspiracy elements) so I was wondering--

I haven't been exposed to enough conspiracy fiction to have any preference to be honest. I know. What a crappy answer. But true.

If you ever feel like really annoying po-mo prose, Wilson and Shea weave a nice mind-bending yarn with their "Illuminatus!" Trilogy (the only *really* annoying aspect is they sometimes change, not only tense, but character perspective, within the same sentence)... just be prepared to never look at squirrels the same way again. FNORD.

Eco's "Foucault's Pendulum" is excellent, if a bit dense.

And almost any book by Robert Ludlum is an easy to read 'page-turner' drowning in an over abundance of paranoia sauce.

So, I'm thinking this is PANdemic. The PANultimate story leaves us PANting for more, hoping for a PANegyric, without PANdering to the PANdemoniac PANorama of the PANdestrian PANitentiary we live in...

LOLOL

Before you PANic - my PANchant for the PANoply of wordplay is a PANacea for the PANtomime PANumbra of reality.

Obviously, I am too PANtastic for words!!!

[Lothar Tuppan]

And, of course, "PAN" spelled backwards is "NAP"... and we all want to do that don't we?

Thank YOU, Uncle Mikey!

I wonder if it's possible to play 'six-degrees of separation' between "Edict Zero" and "Rock n Rule."
