(There is some extra yellow text on the next bit of fence that seems to clarify the question, but I like the element of found Koan)

GNW - how about a future historical novel?

T - boom boom...
(Wonder if John Le Carre is Gen re X ?)

Also - through that Turbulence site above saw this today, which might help the quality control. Or not...
