Update #8: Thank you...
Dear Friends,
Although we may not know each other personally, we have something special in common. We share a dream.
We share a dream of the future. Not a brighter future of hope and sunshine, but a distinctly different future. A future not much bleaker than our own.
A future where every citizen has the right to bear affordably priced weapons of mass destruction...
A future where the undead petition for the right to consume the tasty, tasty flesh of the living...
A future where a megalomaniacal supercomputer has the right to establish itself as Permanent Decider and shepherd its citizenry onward to glorious progress...
And through this shared dream, you've accomplished something amazing. You've raised $9,435! Now it's time to make our shared dream a reality.
It's time to unleash Inevitable upon the world.
2010 is when the dystopia arrives, and you're responsible for it. Be proud!
Thank you,
Jeremy and Jonathan
