Part One
Pirate broadcasters roam the planet, spreading the word.All of the best people, whether they know it or not, have given up on the world and retreat in their own private way from it. The most articulate among them express the hopelessness. The rest struggle along disgusted. The only people left to run the mainstream society are those who mouth the empty message of hope---politicians, businessmen, people who are out to grab something for themselves, money, power, glory, by trying to sell to the masses a message of false hope. And scientists like [name deleted] who espouse hope as a technological offshoot into a cybernetic infinity of spacetime, even though they may be theoretically correct, are looked upon with suspicion and irrelevancy. The real hope, if any, lies in the theories of real people like Jack, who tell us how the world will soon near its destruction, until the disgust of its alienated people builds through hopeless frustration into the extremity of desperation and snaps the world organism into existence.
