There's so much I want to say after reading this thread yet don't know how or what. I woke up at 3 am unable to go back to sleep, and by 4 am I was reading this thread. Almost 2.5 hours later, including reading each page and many links, the feeling inside is eerie and surreal and amazing and familiar. I do hope to jump into the discussion, but for the time being (the rest of my world is waking up now, literally, and I must get started with my day), the best I can do is say bravo, OP, for a fantastic thread, even if the subject is dark and threatening. I have added it to my Favorites and have given 5*.
