Thanks for the chapter. A good place to break off.

Should be interesting to see what happens when things start again on this series.
Rational people have supported the worst dictators of history - Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, etc.

I'm mad - at least I have an excuse for what I do.

I have read Chapter 41 several times now, and just noticed an oddity:
... he entered the queue for takeoff from the short runway, 36 Right. He’d be taking off due south and ...
Unless Bergstrom has seriously wacky runway numbering, runway 36R should point due North, if I read my references correctly. 18L (I think) would be the due south number.

I've been re-reading this one, it's one of my favorite tales of all time, certainly in the top 10. And I include more than 50 years of reading in that assessment, and many thousands of books read.

Been thinking that "Through My Eyes" would make a good title for the story, rather than just "Kit".

This story has been languishing for a while, and I'd love to see more. What Vil is going to do with her "Free Meddle", for one. :P

I'm sure she's going to get Kit right on the edge of outraged, just barely within what he'll tolerate. Maybe buy him a Beech King Air C90Gtx? Or a CJ3? I wouldn't mind, in the least, having a Beech, myself. My only problem is that there's no way I can pass the flight physical. (Being diabetic is the pits.)
An objective definition of "Political Correctness":

"A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority, and
rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the
proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
