Bad Idea File?

  1. Aesop,
    Please help me find a fictional story you wrote. It is about lefties protesting on city streets. Several men take action to direct how the protest goes. The men use smoke and sticks that go pew pew pew to create mayhem. The end was they ditch their barrels into a river and no one is the wiser.

    I do not remember the year it was written or even the title. Thank you.

    1. Thank you. And ya, Taxicab Depressions was a favorite. I told him so. Sad to see him go.

  3. That story is just as pertinent today as I remember it being pertinent six years ago.

    I did expect that it would have been realized by now. The underlying conditions that were the basis of the story have not improved in any way since then. They have worsened.

    I suppose we have been three-time lucky. That won't hold up forever. I am not looking forward to the blowup.
