Further proceedings of café meeting…

… as reported by me, comprising desultory statements and snippets of conversation.

– This will expand Josef A’s spy network and not, as he maintains, the access to knowledge. We are dealing instead with an expansion of ignorance, not consciousness.

Speaker unidentified.

– Dig-ether-al is the nuclear blast of the information explosion. It irradiates the lives of us all. By showing almost everything, it obliterates out involvement in anything.

Calculus, rubbing the bridge of his nose, paraphrasing Val Clery.

– This is the high digital diddle.

Definitely Calculus while drawing on a beloved beedi.

– Look. I’ve got this ‘How to guide on sabotage. Find its solar panels and take them out.

Martha, after some hesitation.

– It’s no helium balloon that can be shot down in flames.’

Auld Archie (interrupting).

– Indeed. And Josef A will be wise to conventional tactics of destruction. We have to think laterally.

– Surely, you mean vertically!

Joint interruptions from various Kommune members.

– Agreed. Any thoughts then, lateral or vertical?

– What about just that – thought power! As when people held hands surrounding the Pentagon to levitate it.

Koockie, suddenly animated.

– Well that would be doing their job for them. That would only play into Josef A’s hands. We don’t want to do that to a balloon.

Manu, pointing out a flaw in such thinking.

– To defeat this evil, we must raise a henge, a word henge. Josef A makes reality by imposing his thoughts, using words. His words. We change the words. We change reality.

Martha, interceding in defense of Koockie.
