The letter inside is real. Sent by a college student to friends: Think me crazy-but how would you like to help me save the earth? It has begun! Anger burns like an Irish demon in Chuck McCrory’s throat: 'They piss their poisons and flush their factories in our drinking water.' Insight strikes on how to change the country. Secret Oath taken to rise to power, to hold their values, to stick together, to recruit others, to bring back America. Sex shatters the group: 'A young goddess flaunted and a young god hunted. They mixed like a warm front and a jet stream. Tornado fury.' Action! 'Politics is practical. So get your asses out of your classes and into the streets.' They took it to other schools. Danger-'Those goddamn college kids will not throw dirt on my America' said fat Jack Dawson, FBI agent, Academic Division. Oratorical Brilliance: 'I am an American of the class mammalia of the phyla chordata of the kingdom animalia of the planet earth. I promise to protect America, life, and the earth, in Thomas Jefferson’s words, with my life, my fortune, and my sacred honor. I ask you no less. I pledge you no less.'
