Dust

For a few years, I have had a little feud with this newsgroup.  In the last
year, the third year after that horrible first 9/11 after the end of the
last millennium, I have written a novel I hope makes generally plain some
things plain to me.  I made it fiction, because I haven't found fact to be
generally acceptable.  One fact is that generally this newsgroup
subordinates mission to fundraising.  The margin between mission and
fundraising is profit or loss.  Nonprofit means not having a margin in
either.

In the novel, I've based main characters on Joan of Arc and George Herbert
Walker Bush, Rosa Parks and Malcolm X.  Less driving characters in the book
are Norma Jean and Billy the Kid.

The whole of it is on the Web at people.star.net/silence.
