PREPare for Warp Speed

var thisStory  = true;

Tonight flattery we received:
“Hi John, Great job on your blog! Love it! I also like that your wife's name goes well with yours! Thanks for sending this over!”
Expect you should that if flattery you receive, a query will want to go with it!
“How is the prep coming along for your new job?”
Younglings. Younglings! A visitor we have. . . . Ummm. Been prepping for his new job our teacher has not!? How embarrassing. How m-barrassing! Gather round the map-reader. Clear your minds. And find his wayward prep, perchance we will. . . . Humm . . . Teacher's blog remains, but the preparation isn't there, it isn'tHow can this be? mmm? A thought? Anyone?

Use your words, you must.

adult interrupts: “But master . . . Who could empty information from the archives. That's impossible! Isn't it?”

Dangerous and disturbing this puzzle is. Mediate on this, you will:
  1. Should the internet be more free or more controlled than it is?
  2. Is content on the internet more or less transient or enduring than content in newspapers, magazines or other traditional media? How much longer can printed words survive?
  3. What is propaganda? How do you spot it? How does the internet shape your views? What sources of information do you trust?
  4. Is the internet a fad? Will it be less popular in the future than it is today? How do you think it will change? How should it change?
