The Devil's Disciple
LOST IN SPACE
It would have been easy enough for him to have
written the above a few years back. To write it at this
point would require moral courage; and I, for one, would
recognize that moral courage immediately. Frankly, if I
found myself in such a pickle, I can't say for sure what I'd do.
No need: LP's actions already provide the answer.
After so many years of practicing ad hominem, the
path of least resistance is to remain in motion along
the same despicable path. Struggling to vary out of
that orbit would require vast amounts of energy, not
to mention a moral compass which is clearly lacking.
Hence, my prediction is a dead-engine float right
along the same orbit as always, unless and until a
meteor strikes the LP ship head-on, smashing it to
smithereens. In fact, I place the odds on this at 99%
(not the meteor strike, but the morally-barren float).
