We live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups. I ask, in my writing, "What is real?" Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power, that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing. ~Philip K. Dick

You think you are prepared. You think you have done everything you're supposed to, study hard, work hard, keep yourself out of trouble, and then, whoosh!

Something that will either change your life for the better, or end it forever. Chaos. ~James Michael
