This may seem a stupid thing to claim is a distraction when reading text and ideas that have been intervened and interfered with but obvious spelling mistakes and simplistic transcription clumsiness insult the reader, the writer and demean the text itself. However, once you can rise above these Telos people, you do get a great FLASHBACK reading experience, a worthy product of the creative writing classes that took place in the Mayfair offices, Duke Street's pokey gable and the Angus Steak House (on Haymarket, where Beauregard meets his end).

It drills down to the heart and soul of the man. Much thanks.
