    Wow. When I saw how many lines this was in the preview, I almost skipped over it, but I was curious. I am so glad I stopped in! This was so fascinating. My favorite was propaganda and a bat. That was powerful. Did you actually write this! You're incredibly intelligent.
    Well written, fascinating, and captivating.
    But most of all, true.
    Write on!!!
