News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

The drones have given up on that universe she's looking at... and the doomed dreamers can't deal with the other.

THIS.  FUCKING RIGHT THERE.

*sigh*

She is screaming at the drones about reality tunnels and what-not, but if to comprehend her position, the drones need to put in a lot of head-hurting work, then there is a missing-link of motivation.  Eye on the prize - sure - but what is the prize? 

I never scream at the drones, myself...I tend to assume that everyone's working with a different perspective that I myself might not be seeing.

I'm more of the "not eliminating irrelevant information" type.
