Oh, I don't know. Reading your journals would probably be quite an adventure. But losing them would be a large bummer..
As for my stuff and the will, well, I guess if I'm gone, they will just think I'm odder than before. Not actually something I thought much about. Hmm, maybe they can't read my scratch-lings anyway. We can hope. (Sometimes I can't even read them a month or two later, so maybe that is a good, code kind of thing). Great post, food for thought too. I went back to read the Terry Pratchett/steamroller post. Great stuff as well. I agree, it seems a shame when people of that much talent do something like that. Give all proceeds to charity. But don't destroy a once-in-forever talent base and resulting works for others to enjoy. Sorry, got off track in a historical post-bent there.
Thanks for more great writing here, outside of your journals, and please let us know if any black helicopters land in your back yard in the near future. Then again, you probably won't call US with your one phone call. Guess ask DD to let us know ( :
"Have you been picking up the Van-Heisenhopf radiation from this guy's journals?"
"Oh yeah. And the vibratory resonances from his fountain pen nib are off the hook."
"Clearly he knows too much."
"Are you saying what I think you're saying?"
"Do you need me to spell it out for you? I need that motherfucker replaced with an android capable of writing in standard Palmer method cursive, 12 point font, and I need it to fill six pages of A4 sized journal paper every day. Then scan and upload all that drivel. By the end of the month, any credibility he has with the pen-casting community will be in the shitter."
"On it, sarge."
