I actually wrote this piece on demand. It has a funny origination story.

I arrived early at a Loscon panel to overhear the panelists concerned about a misprint in the program book. The panel was supposed to be about the panelists reviewing work submitted by the audience, much like a mini-Clarion workshop or Iron Editor panel. Unfortunately the program book had written this up incorrectly, and the panelists were concerned that nobody would show up with things to review.

This piece of flash was what I quickly typed into my iMac based on a dream I had woken up to that morning. The panelists liked it, and urged me to submit it.
