 Yes, this is a VERY incomplete story.  A huge mess.  Needs to be heavily
rewritten, to among other things, move the timeline way further into the
future.  Made a mistake of starting to write a lengthy 'near future' story
with political references, and (naturally) got overtaken by events.  Note
to self: Idiot!

   Some sections are even still in 'full speed outline/stream, damn the
typos!' form.  Horrible to behold.

   So why even make it visible?  Because: - It has some good bits already I
think, - I'd like to hear any suggestions.  Pornographic or political.

   It's intended to make this quite a long story, and yes it will have a
political moral, that _isn't_ what you might think from reading the start
of the story.  I'm planning a particularly amusing twist at the end, but
I'll not give that away till the work is completed.  It's likely to get me
in far more trouble than any mere porn would.

   One thing I want to make very, very clear.  I think all this fascist
government control mania stuff we're seeing is utterly insane.  It can't
work, but it can bring civilization to its knees while our demented rulers
_try_ to make it work.  It has to be stopped.  With bloodshed if necessary.
These stories are meant to illustrate the total, unworkable insanity and
inhumanity of this type of hyper-controlling, 'governments are God'
mentality.

   Which is not to say that these sorts of outrageous scenes do not appeal
to certain base instincts.  Why, some utterly twisted and depraved
individuals might even find these stories erotic.  A bizarre thing, the
human mind, isn't it?

   The main story is in the C-Bay files.  The Vignetes folder contains an
assortment of story offshoots in the same world-line.  Some of them have
become quite long.
