...larity presented you, perhaps such as only glimpsed before by untold, and unburied, sun-mad desert hikers seeking such revelations.

And then retro-experience.co.uk loads. You scribe lazy and pointless figure-eights with your mouse: circle the PLAY button.

No - not circling like a carrion crow!

Tapping PLAY, brings up the old Atari games: You begin to play Tetris.

You are trying to distract yourself.

All through the first level, that gnawing not-as-simply-deleted thought swinging in your mind's back garden about a freight elevator's load of lawyers dangling in peril.

You cannot even say why you deleted the message.

What pithy comment might He hang around your neck? -- one of the Sir Attenboroughs in that documentary last night. Are you but the natural other-end of the thread? -- From barbecuing wildebeest over the fire sparked from two rocks bashed together -- to the two apes unquestioningly turning their keys simultaneously!

You distract yourself by switching to Asteroids.

Uh oh. No one's written this branch yet. :o
