I at least will wait until I read it to decide if it is a worthwhile literary endeavor or fodder de jure for the Bill Moyer types [/quote] I can't tell you how impatient I am for your review. Perhaps you can get an advanced copy of the book. [/quote] For you, I'll make a special request. After I peruse the advanced copy, I might just start in on a screenplay, and then we'll have the next great train movie. [/quote] If its as good as your posts, it will be in theaters for, oh about 30 seconds... FOFLMAO... You MUST be kidding...LOL.... LC [/quote] I'm envisioning one of those dinner theater, interactive shows. Locally, they do something like Frank(?) and Tina's wedding, where the crowd gets involved in the story. I'm not the theater type, but if there's dinner and beer involved......[;)] [/quote] Good idea. That's a practical way to test out a screenplay and refine it as necessary. I was thinking of using a little artistic license for such a screenplay. (The characters mentioned in the following absract are purely fictional, and are not intended to represent actual individuals) I would develop a character (oh let's see, let's call him/her "Elcee")[}:)] who likes to hide behind the cloak of anonymity whilst shooting orphans[sigh] in the back sniper-style[xx(]. He/she does this all from a secret[X-)] location under a tanker full of urea that somehow got sidetracked in a long abandoned railyard overlooking an orphanage. He/she is assisted in the devious plot to shake down local farmers[C):-)] and coal consumers[:O] (the orphanicide is just a diversion to keep the local "keystone cops"-esque STB agents[%-)] off track) by a local vagrant we'll call, hmmm let's see, how about "Ilky"[D)] who eagerly does the bidding of his evil overseer. The case is finally broken when the ghost[angel] of Casey Jones leads the surviving orphans to the two ne'erdowells, who are subsequently "ballasted"[B)] to oblivion by the gang of enraged orphans[:(!]. The movie ends with a big party[tup][dinner][{(-_-)}] as grain gets shipped out and coal gets shipped in by new rail service providers[alien][alien][alien], while the ghost of Casey Jones[8D] chugs off into the sunset.....
