Hi, I do like the idea of the book. Maybe the enclosed chapter will be
useful, once it's been trimmed; however, I'm not going to do any updates or trimming until I hear if you're interested. It's the closing chapter of THE
LAST MORTAL GENERATION (published in Australia in 1999 and not released anywhere else, at least not legally). I now have the rights reverted to me.

I'd like some further discussion on this. My take is that it could be good if culled down, and we want something from Damien in there. Problems as is are the negativity (taken out of context of his full book), and a lot of stuff that I don't see as terribly relevant.

So I think what we need is to decide where we want his best X thousand words, and let him know the section topic, along with our thoughts on it.

Perhaps we can give Damien the thumbs up for inclusion if he makes such changes as Reason and others suggest?

I'll ask Caliban for his feeling on this.

ok why the 2 PM's urging scrutiny?
has he given us a deadline?

My position:

Before we decide which section to rework from a previously published source of only average quality, I would first seek to identify where we would have a particular need that could be filled by this ressource.

In short - lets keep it in mind and come back to it in a few days.

No deadlines.. no worries.. more time for thought on where best to use this is appropriately wise.
