Today's Word: Blink

The eyes darted away, closed for a split-second, and returned in their fix on me. She died a second later.

Just a thought

Been fantasizing this afternoon about a series of Crimes Against Reality tribunals for people who disseminate massive and toxic levels of propaganda. A near-future Nuremburg trial for professional liars and sociopaths, done up by neo-Rationalists and a world league of empiricists.

Fiction writers are naturally excluded, but are brought in as expert witnesses for the prosecution. We also get the prime talking-head spots on cable law programs as insta-analysts.

Court TV, here I come.
