And indeed, that is scary to those who need the logic in order to exert more control. As for breathing life back into the corporate world - I am thinking more of the people stuck in it, if the world falls, so be it.

As for breathing life back into the corporate world – I am thinking more of the people stuck in it, if the world falls, so be it.

Stephenson brings the stereotypes of the housewife's addiction to soap operas and the husband's addiction to sports into focus. But rather than conscious corporate plot, I see a social will to this life-through-simulacra, or virtual experience. After all, we are our own corporations. We in the West have bred the will to live directly out of ourselves since it seems to be the one effective way we can keep from killing each other. After two world wars, can we blame ourselves? I say that as one who has insisted on living directly, writing my own illogical story without much of a plot, to my detriment at times. Such people create suspicion and fear in the masses, which is mildly corrosive to both parties. Still, there is no other way to "live" in my book, all the way until I die. You go, girl, with that disruption management and breathe life back into the corporate world. What a beautiful way to acknowledge poetry as the legislator of our lives.
