INITIALIZING

ISSUE INTRODUCTION BY EDITOR AND PUBLISHER C. A. PASSINAULT

Welcome to a very special Halloween issue of Frontier Pop!
Actually, it’s our first Halloween issue, but I don’t have a lot of time to do anything about it, so please bear with me. I had wanted to write an original short story for this issue, but with a lot of big projects going on, I did not have time.
I suppose that I have two stories, of sorts, for my readers to check out. One is a short story, called “The Point”. I believe that I wrote it eight years ago, which is a while, but it’s really good. The second is a screenplay for a feature indie film that I will never film, as logistically, it’s not worth it. The screenplay is called “Reverence”, which I finished seven years ago, after five drafts. Please do not confuse it, or the story, for the Reverence short film that I’m preparing to work on. I will say, however, that the new Reverence short indie film is based upon the first act of Reverence, where the couple visits the graveyard. I took that premise, and then ran with it for the short film, which is an entirely new script with new characters. The Reverence short film, too, is going to have to be a masterpiece (and, according to my latest draft, it is well on its way to becoming just that. It may be one of my first solo films, but it should become one the best short films, if not the best, ever produced in the Tampa Bay indie film market. The Reverence short film, due to be produced in 2011, will be logistically easier, too, with a cast of four and a running time of 30 minutes.). It will have to be a masterpiece because that short film will be a cornerstone for an annual horror film festival that I’m working on.
So, kick back, and read my stories. I should be able to write, and publish, some new stories by next Halloween.
Since this Halloween absolutely sucks for some of us, I’d like to take the time to remember one of my best Halloweens. That was the Halloween party of 1990, a really cool apartment complex party thrown by the employees of Price Water House in Tampa (You’d never think that accountants and programmers could throw good parties, but these people could, and did. This party rivaled some of my fraternity parties, and was one of the best parties which I’ve ever been to. Most of the people were older than I was, too, as they were college graduates, for the most part.)
In October of 1990, I had begin my DJ career as DJ Wiz Kid, as I was very young, and in that month I produced two cassette program releases, Fresh Mix, and Nasty Mix (Yes, the names sucked, but again, I was really young, did not figure out exactly what I was doing, or how significant that everything that I was doing at that point would be in the future, and just getting started in my entertainment career. For the re-release of the releases as converted MP3 programs later this year/ early next year, I did my best to make the titles cool by branding them “Fresh MX” and “Nasty MX”, although the programs themselves, while creative, are mediocre.). Toward the end of October, I was planning out my third release, Horizons, which would end up becoming not only my first hit, but a program that was many years ahead of its time, and would set the stage for entertainment formats which still exist today. Besides the cool title, Horizons, well, at least the first 45 minute side, would have some really cool music. What really made the difference, however, was my plan to go to a party with a tape recorder, interview people, and then use samples and segments of that session in the program. It was a really cool idea, and one which I would revisit often over the years (and even today, and in the near future, I will be doing things like this).
On October 31, 1990, I went to that Halloween party with a tape recorder and a microphone, and had a lot of fun interviewing some really cool people. The way that they had set up the party was really cool, too. The party was held in two apartments on the ground floor of an apartment building, with both apartments being across the hall from each other. The entrances and exits of the apartments were relocated at the rear sliding glass doors, and the actual doors, which were facing each other, were bridged floor to ceiling across the hall with a tunnel made of mattresses! Obviously, this would not have worked if it had been raining and windy, but since it was dry and cold, this hall tunnel was a creative, and brilliant way to turn two apartments into one (now, as a professional event planner, in hindsight, I can say that there were some serious issues with fire codes and occupancy levels with the set up, and that no sane professional would ever set up an event like that for liability reasons, but with it being a private, underground party, it was really, really cool, and really fun). The east apartment was the main entrance / exit, and served as a mingling area where all of the food and drinks were. The tunnel had a fog machine set up in it, creating a cool, lit up haze as people traversed back and forth. The west apartment was set up as a dance floor, and had lighting, a DJ, an awesome sound system, and another fog machine (they had wanted me to DJ their party, but because I did not have any equipment, that was not an option). They had the party cranking, too, because all of the employees had the whole building rented out to their company, and it wasn’t like the other tenants in the adjacent apartments would complain, as they were all at the party (Also being a Wednesday night, it was a good thing that they did have the whole building to themselves, as the party ran into the early hours of November 1. For the rest of the apartment complex, it was a work night, and for the revelers, I believe that it was for them too. Ah, to be young, and not need a whole lot of sleep!).
After I experienced one of the coolest parties in (my) history, and I had tapes full of interviews, I proceeded later that night to work on my Horizons release. On November 2, 1990, I released Horizons, and, no surprise, a few hundred copies were immediately circulated to the people who were at the party; I dubbed a few copies, they dubbed many more copies, and within days, there were thousands of copies all over the Tampa Bay area. The people who were at the party were fans of the release, especially since many of them were on it, and I had a huge hit on my hands. To me, those first two releases were just the warm up. My DJ career really started with Horizons.
Thinking back, though, I really wished that there were cool parties, like that one, going on today. Few are, and that will soon change.
At any rate, that was an anecdote about some really cool people, and the best Halloween party that I’ve ever been to, at the dawn of my entertainment career (I was really popular in college in 1990, and in 1991, too, although my life has always been one of extremes. I’m either loved, or hated. I never get any middle ground). That said, this issue will now take a turn into an anecdote that I would like to refer to as “The Evil Among Us.” It’s about a group of crazy fanboys who tried to gang up on me online, who started a fight with me, and who ultimately lost.
That said, the following account is my opinion, and should not be construed as fact, although it is written as fact. I’d rather not start each statement with “In my opinion”, as it gets clumsy.
THE FOLLOWING IS ALSO WHY I DO NOT TRUST THE PEOPLE CURRENTLY INVOLVED WITH THE TAMPA INDIE FILM SCENE. I ALSO DO NOT RECOMMEND GETTING INVOLVED WITH THE TAMPA FILM SCENE, OR TRUSTING ANYONE, UNTIL A PROFESSIONAL FILM COMMUNITY CAN BE ESTABLISHED, AND STANDARDS OF CONDUCT, AND ACCOUNTABILITY, ARE IN FORCE. ORDER MUST BE BROUGHT TO THE MARKET!
THERE IS NO PROFESSIONAL INDIE FILM COMMUNITY IN TAMPA BAY, AS OF LATE 2010, IN MY EDUCATED OPINION, AND I FEEL THAT IT WILL BE, AT LEAST, 2013, AT THE EARLIEST, BEFORE CONDITIONS ARE RIGHT, AND SUPPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IS IN PLACE, TO HELP ESTABLISH ONE.
IF YOU FEEL THAT YOU MUST GET INVOLVED, AND ARE WILLING TO TAKE A RISK, PLEASE DO NOT TRUST ANYONE UNTIL THEY EARN YOUR TRUST. TRUST MUST BE EARNED!
In 2005, I introduced myself to the group of people who claimed to the be indie film community in the Tampa Bay area. Each month, this group of fanboys would gather at a monthly film festival which was notorious for showing amateurish, crappy indie films. That monthly film festival was the Coffeehouse Film Review, which would soon become The Tampa Film Review.
At first, everything seemed to go well. The people, other than their obvious flaws, seemed cool. Despite their lack of talent and organization, I accepted them for why they were. Had I known what was really going on behind my back, however, I would not have been so accepting. I sincerely do regret ever knowing any of them, although my knowledge about these people, which was gained through the hellish experience of knowing them, is valuable to everyone, and should prove to be valuable in the future.
From what I gather, the group looked me up online. The ringleaders were afraid of competing with me, and allowed their insecurities to start them out an a course of action which would prove to be a nightmare for them. You see, this group was actually a clique of insecure wannabe’s, and a tactic that they employed often was to eliminate perceived competition through stealing, slander, and what they tried to pass off as intimidation.
While those unethical, unprofessional tactics seemed to work on other people whom they ganged up on and drove away (which crippled any progress in the Tampa indie film scene, in my qualified opinion), they made a mistake when they tried it with me. Although there is a lot of evidence that they studied my web sites and stole what they could from them, they should have done there homework on my a lot more thoroughly. If they had known what I had been doing since 2000, they would have never started with me.
You see, I had already established myself as an entertainment ethics activist and a scam fighter, and I had become the worst nightmare for people like them. Had they left me alone, I would have probably left them alone, as they were hardly a threat to anyone, and seriously, they were not succeeding in their endeavors much. Their monthly film festival was seriously flawed, their indie films and web sites sucked, and they were certainly not a professional threat to me, or anyone else. I would have probably left them alone. By 2005, I had been successful in my fight against scams; my associates and I had already crippled several modeling scams, had changed a lot of things in the modeling industry, had closed several unethical business (including a casting scam in Clearwater in 2003 which was run by a shady, unethical man claiming to be a “casting director”, but who was actually using castings and auditions for “feature films” as bait to sell actors classes in his acting school; this would prove to be relevant later on, as I strongly believe that he set out for revenge later, and added to the fight with the Tampa indie film clique (and to this man: Do not gloat over your perception that you “sabotaged” my relationship with any of these people. You merely annoyed me, and that is it. What happened, I believe, would have happened, and played out, the same way had you never became involved. You are insignificant, as well as petty and vindictive, but rather, and ultimately, impotent in your attempts to get even with me. As for me, I’m gloating that you wasted your time and energy in the attempt, as revenge in itself is ultimately unproductive and self-defeating. Revenge is actually worthwhile if you don’t have to go out of your way to achieve it, and it was a byproduct of success, such as successfully competing with me. Good luck there, my friend, because I’m the real deal, and fake, no-talent people like you have been unable to compete with me on any level. If anything, you helped me out by serving as a catalyst and speeding up the process of figuring out who these people were, and how they operated. Thank you for your help by accidently helping my productivity by saving me a lot of time. Your ignorance and ineptness was very much appreciated).
In 2006, I noticed that some of my ideas and web site design concepts had turned up on their web sites, with some of them blatantly plagiarizing my properties. One of them was a web designer, and their main web site incorporated some of my latest web design ideas, which was hardly a coincidence. Additionally, another so-called “filmmaker” stole on of my ads and tried to use it himself. That was the state of the Tampa indie film scene, however, as you had a bunch of insecure jerks who did not know what they claimed to do, and they proved it by stealing things from you and then trying to use it against you, WHILE also trying to undermine your credibility through slander and smear campaigns (obviously, if they damage your credibility, then it undermines any claims that you level against them that they stole from you, a tactic which backfired when they tried to use it on me). Networking and helping out the Tampa indie film scene was very risky, it seemed, as you tended to pitch good ideas to people who then tried to compete against you with your own ideas, and use your ideas to boost their own credibility while trying to deny you credit (I’ve come up with solutions for this unethical, unprofessional behavior, as it undermines community, trust, and progress. These solutions will be heavily used in my upcoming Tampa Film Conference series for the future Tampa indie film community, once it is established for the first time). It caught my attention, but I merely noted it, and did not do anything about it. In the fall of 2006, they decided to do a short film together, and one of them asked me for actress referrals for the film, which was called The Quiet Place. So, I referred my good friend, actress and model Harmony Oswald, to the production, and she was cast into one of the two lead roles.
Without going into a really, really long story (check out my behind-the-scenes expose on The Quiet Place on Tampa Bay Film, and in other issues of Frontier Pop, for what happened), I helped out with the production, and did a good job. During the production, a filmmaker and I were discussing indie film, film festivals, Youtube, and online film festivals, and I revealed that I was working on an online film festival which used sources such as Youtube. Little did I know but another filmmaker was nearby, eavesdropping (he and his brother had been on my web sites, and obviously knew that I was their top competition. Although they did not publicly admit it, their actions proved that this was the case, and they did pay attention to what I did as a result. Stealing my ideas was also proof that the did not know what they were doing, and that they had to learn from me). As thanks for all of my hard work, the clique repaid me by making up slanderous rumors about me behind my back, and spread them around. Did you think that I would take that lying down after it became known to me in late 2007? Hell no. I did the right thing, fought back, and put the idiots in their place! By then, too, I had the support infrastructure in place to address their unethical, unprofessional conduct, also. The timing was perfect!
In late 2006, oblivious to the slander, I began developing Tampa Bay Film, a web site which would eventually grow to a network of over eight web sites, and which would become the voice of Tampa indie film. The stage was set for the most intense fight of my career as several of the evil, unethical bastards tried to gang up on me. My fight with the modeling scams was nothing compared to the fight that these people gave me.
As a side note, please be aware that I was oblivious to their slander and other unethical, unprofessional activity, and that I did not create Tampa Bay Film to attack, or slam, anyone! I do not put that much effort into my criticism of others, and it just so happens that putting them in their proper place was a benefit, and a byproduct, of what Tampa Bay Film became, and that it was never the primary (or original) mission. It was the perfect platform to bring ethics, and integrity, to the market. These people should not be flattered, as they were not a threat, and not significant, to me, and I did not do all of that work as a reaction to what they try to do to me. Their activities helped to open my eyes to what was wrong in the Tampa indie film scene, however, and that was what we addressed. It did lead to a massive war against their lies and activities, although that effort was directed against them as a group, and not any one of them individually, as it would not have been cost-effective, or worthwhile, to do so. The stage was set for what was to come, however, and it did.
When I became aware of these rumors in 2007, it led to a brief fight. The fight was on a pop culture web site which one of the ringleaders had been running since 2000, and the webmaster, who was named Nolan, somehow proclaimed himself to be the authority on indie film in Tampa. Nolan, obviously, was also insanely jealous of me, IMO, and I was told that one of his worst fears was that I would someday compete with his pop culture web site. Although, if he would have been cool and professional, what he and his friends did would become the catalyst for making their worst nightmares come true.
There were about ten of them, and I kicked all of their asses, as well as lent a hand in helping them undermine their own credibility by enhancing their self-sabotage and destructive behavior. I’ve also been told that my war against them led to the demise of The Tampa Film Review, as well as crippled the pop culture site, which, in my opinion, was a hate site.
When Tampa Bay Film launched in January of 2007, with its built-in online film festival, it raised some eyebrows. Coincidently, the filmmaker who had been eavesdropping on my conversation about online film festivals also announced that they had one, and it launched. Their friend, a woman who was a film blogger, immediately slammed my Tampa Bay Film site in an online review on her blog, and praised her friend’s online film festival. She also implied that I had stolen the idea for an online film festival FROM THEM! This really annoyed me, because every indication was that the opposite was true. My belief? Had I NOT said anything on that film set that day about an online film festival, I believe that they would have never come up with an online film festival.
Well, Tampa Bay Film and its online film festival made short work of the competition, despite negative reviews from a few people who obviously had interests in that competition, and a vigorous fight on the pop culture web site message board. By summer, their online film festival failed, and Tampa Bay Film and its online film festival was more popular than ever.
The message board of the pop culture web site proved to be obnoxious, too. The owner, Nolan, who was an aging loser who was afraid of competing with me, IMO, was firmly on the side of his friends, the Tampa indie film clique. Although I won every debate on the message board (and they know it, too!), where the losers finally gave up on the topic being debated and resorted to slander and attempts at credibility attacks, the owner of the pop culture web site did something unforgivable. He’d go in and edit my posts to make it look like I could not defend myself or the topic, or remove my posts altogether, while allowing the posts, and the slander, of his friends to remain (and I was not the only one who witnessed this). That’s when I began to entertain the idea of launching my own pop culture site.
In the fall of 2007, the message board had the mother of all fights. Some filmmakers in the Tampa indie film clique, who had pretended to be my friends, denounced me. The fight became so intense, that they even began fighting each other. It further divided them, and proved to be very entertaining for me.
In December 2007, I had enough of the nonsense. I declared war on them, as far as Tampa indie film went, and their pop culture web site, in respects to its coverage of Tampa indie film, and mobilized Tampa Bay Film to bring order, and balance, to the Tampa indie film market. I also began to publish articles and reviews on Tampa Bay Film which told it how it was, even if it publically stated the obvious.
In January 2008, I published a review of The Tampa Film Review which pretty much told it how it was, and it pissed off the Tampa indie film clique. The organizer, in fact, sent me a profanity-filled email, tried to insult me, and tried to slander me. I supposed that this was confirmation that these people were afraid of criticism, Tampa Bay Film, and of competing with me.
You will know them by what they do, and also be able to measure their professional skill by what they attempt to do, but fail to pull off.
The fighting on the pop culture web site message board, too, continued. I even had a stalker, an anonymous poster who referred to himself as “the_truth” (the funny thing about that name, in my opinion, was that it was an insult to all of the posters on the message board, and they never picked up on it. By calling themselves “the_truth”, they were implying that all of the other posters were full of lies and B.S.), who seemed to have it in for me, and who stirred up trouble without ever revealing who they were. Who do I think that the_truth is? Well, and Mark Terry should pay attention, my leading theory is that this jerk is the casting director from Clearwater who I had put out of business years earlier. They had a lot of free time on their hands, in my opinion, looked me up on the Internet to see where I was posting (I used my real name on the message boards, which made this easy to do), and started to post in order to get even with me. What makes me think this? A post that the_truth did, where they stated I “had a history of conducting smear campaigns on the Internet under various pseudonyms”. The casting director had, in fact, made the same exact claim, just as I put them out of business, and their previous business partner sued them for theft of intellectual property, misrepresentation, and deceptive trade practices. The irony, too, is that the_truth was accusing me of doing what they were also doing on the message board, at the time, but posting as the_truth. Although I was primarily posting under my real name (and with my other accounts, I made it clear that they were also mine), this coward was posting attacks under a pseudonym themselves, and I called them on that. Also, in all of the years that the content in question was published on my web sites, no one had ever been able to prove that the authors were, in fact, me, posting under other names.
The_truth, however, proved to be nothing more than an insignificant irritant, who served to annoy and harass people, more than anything else. If they set out to obtain revenge upon me, they failed miserably, just like they failed in business.
Tampa Bay Film became more dominant in 2008, and expanded into a network of four separate web sites within that year, all operating under the powerful Tampa Bay Film brand. One of those sites was an all-new online film festival, built from the ground up with improvements. All of the Tampa Bay Film sites were interconnected with each other, forming a meta site of unequaled influence and effectiveness. The pop culture site, and its “coverage” of Tampa indie film, could not compete, and their coverage, and input, into Tampa indie film began to fall behind. The owner of the pop culture site, as well as his cronies, were not happy about that. Because of Tampa Bay Film and my other online activity, criticism against the Tampa indie film clique, and The Tampa Film Review monthly film festival, expanded exponentially. Throughout 2008, the most common thing that I heard from people was that I was right, and that I was bringing up a lot of valid points in my ongoing criticism. A growing amount of people dropped their support for what the Tampa indie film clique was doing.
2008 saw a growing backlash against the Tampa indie film clique, and the pop culture site, as more and more people learned about what was really going on. Word spread, and we were winning the war on every front. The first indiction of that was the growing instability of The Tampa Film Review, which was progressively becoming worse, as well as less consistent. Another indication was that the readers of the pop culture site began to treat it like a running joke, and readership dropped off. A growing number people refused to take the pop culture site seriously, and even more people accepted Tampa Bay Film as the voice of Tampa indie film.
By the end of the first year of war in the Tampa indie film scene, The Tampa Film Review failed, and closed down. Although the organizers had attempted to address the shortcomings that my reviews had brought up, it proved to be too little, too late. They couldn’t fix it, were discouraged, and, in my opinion, simply threw in the towel before their monthly film festival even approached its potential.
Both funny, and sad, was that they spun the last Tampa Film Review, in January 2009, as the “successful end of a five year run”. Many people laughed at the spin, as they all knew what had really happened. They knew that they had failed. The sad thing was, so did the organizers and the remaining small number of “supporters”.
With the end to The Tampa Film Review came a lot of changes, too. The back of the Tampa indie film clique was broken, as they had lost their monthly get-together. As a result, the main players of the clique began to drift apart. Some of them even began to fight each other even more fiercely than before, blaming each other for their failures (which greatly amused me), and turned loose friends to solid enemies.
Nolan’s history of selective censorship, and the publication of propaganda, on his pop culture site, which I was one of many victims, began to catch up to him. His readership dropped even more. The pop culture site peaked around 2007. From 2009 to 2010, the readership of his site dropped by over 90%! I was very happy to see his twisted games catch up to him, and cost his site the popularity he seemed to thrive on.
And, in early 2010, when Nolan, his remaining friends, and his pop culture site, were down in the gutter, I decided to proceed to finish off what was left of his site. I decided to put together a rival pop culture web site which would have overwhelmed and dominated his even when it was in its prime. Frontier Pop was born in April 2010, and began development for a fall 2010 launch.
In early summer 2010, Nolan gave up on trying to address the growing, and constant, criticism against him, and he made it difficult for anyone to comment on his site, and interact with it. He had a readers commentary on the front page, which was often full of criticism and people mocking him, and diverted commentary to his message board. This was another large nail in the coffin of his web site, and his retreat crippled it. He lost most of his remaining readers, and his failure became even more pronounced when he’s put a thread on the message board about his current issue with bold instructions like “Let’s do it!”, and no one by two or three people would respond. Clearly, his web site was on the rocks, and, IMO, he and his friend Terence were the ones who drove it there, through their censorship and bullying their readers.
The apparent dismal condition of the once-relevant pop culture web site must have been depressing for Nolan and his little buddy, but Nolan, in a last attempt to deflect blame from him, IMO, tried to spin the pathetic position of his site by claiming that it was a result of social media sites, and not because of anything that he did, or any sort of organized boycott against his site. No one bought it. Everyone knew what really happened, and I think that it finally got to Nolan that no one was buying his B.S. anymore.
In July 2010, Nolan had a meltdown, and threw a temper tantrum on his pop culture web site, which had less than five (verifiable, from the feedback on his message board) readers left. He put together a video aimed at myself and his other critics. His few supporters also turned on him about the video, and they all criticized him for it. Upon seeing that, I decided to launch Frontier Pop early.
Frontier Pop launched a few days later. Since then, Frontier Pop has become very popular, far exceeding what Nolan’s site achieved at its prime. Frontier Pop is better designed, better organized, has better content, and literally blew away Nolan’s pop culture site in every way. Nolan’s web site is now pretty much at rock bottom, with three or four casual readers; most of whom are what’s left of the Tampa indie film clique. I’ve heard that Nolan cries about Frontier Pop, especially as it is showing him first hand how a pop culture web site should be done. The war is ongoing, but his site is no longer relevant, or any measurable competition. He and his small band of fanboy nerds have reaped what they have sown.
As far as Frontier Pop is concerned, proof of its superiority is easily referenced, as you are reading it right now. Behold, the future, which is now the present. Frontier Pop makes Nolan’s site look outdated and pathetic, and also outdoes his estranged fanboy friend Brandon’s boring site.
The fanboys lost, and now, whenever we sing “Nolan lost”, we sing it with pride, as we know that he got what he deserved. He lost his readers, he lost his respect, he lost his pride, and he lost the relevance of his old, outdated pop culture web site. His retreat continues, and we don’t expect his web site to last much longer, as he will eventually figure out that updating it is an exercise in futility, especially when all of his former readers have moved on to Frontier Pop. Is there really any point of him continuing to try to maintain, and update, his site?
Regarding the evil referred to in the title of this issue, we have learned, through this tale of years of conflict, conflict which was caused by insecurity, pettiness, cyberbullying, and jealousy, that actions which could be described as evil ultimately lead to failure. Am I evil? It depends upon who you talk to, I suppose, but no, I’m not evil. I wasn’t the bad guy in all of this. I did not start this, and I have integrity. I’m one of the good guys.
I suppose that the definition of evil all comes down to motivation, and perception. Some may say that I was evil because I did not take the crap that they tried to dish out on me, and I fought back, but seriously; if someone slandered you and tried to attack your credibility in an attempt to avoid the real issues, what would you do? If they stole from you and tried to use your own property to compete against you with, what would you do? If they censored you, and tried to spin you as evil, what would you do?
I suppose that if you cannot compete with someone, and they have you beat in every way, that you would call them evil. That’s not my definition, it’s not my excuse, and it’s not my experience. If I have competition, I certainly do not attack them. If being better than the rest is evil, then I suppose that I am guilty. To me, however, evil is not being better, it is what you do. Evil is taking an action which hurts innocent people, and, to me, these people are not only truly evil, but they got what they deserved.
They also learned, the hard way, that I was the wrong person to mess with. They cannot compete with me, I have resources whish enable me to outdo them in every way, and I put them in their place legally, ethically, and professionally. That’s good enough for me, and this good guy won. I will continue to win, too, as the battles wage onward, and forward.
In the future, when Tampa Bay Film is one of the leading indie film resources in the world, there is finally a professional Tampa indie film scene, and the entertainment industry in Tampa Bay sets the standard, I’m sure that many will go back and read what happened to lead to all of that progress. They will study history, and my words will live forever as the sins of those who opposed me, and my allies, are known. I’m sure that they will look foolish indeed, as they did not earn the right to participate, and to benefit, from what was coming, and by what they failed to see.
In that time, it will be acknowledged the way to the future was paved with conflict, but it was conquered with peace. May my word serve as a testament in the records of history, where the good guys, the professionals, win.
Oh, and Nolan blew it, IMO. Nolan lost. Never forget that.
