What if nobody did?</p> <p>Freelance writer Melanie Stroub was happily trashing webevangelist Wilfred McQuarry's weekly rant about angels when she got it, and ended up fixated on angels. It was like that for everyone: whatever you were doing when you got Burnout Fever was carved into your soul. Following a free-ranging conversation was no longer possible, and everything had to be translated back to your fixation. For some, it made little difference; for others, it spelled disaster.</p> <p>Barry Lieber knew all about it. He'd watched helplessly while Melanie succumbed one morning over breakfast, and it drove him into joining a grassroots effort to find a cure. His activist friend Derek had good contacts in D.C., even in Congress. But there were others who looked at Burnout Fever as an opportunity, and when McQuarry incited a religious war over the victims, it stopped being just a health issue.</p> <p>Nobody was safe. Every promising lead turned sour. The righteous, the wealthy, and the powerful all sought shelter from the madness, from the logic-defying pattern of contagion that stymied even the Centers for Disease Control. It defied explanation, but without a cure, the Earth would vanish like a bad dream. And time was running out.</p> <p>Visit my blog: KlurgSheld.wordpress.com</p> </div> <a href="/blog/23858-author-reading-burnout-fever-by-p-orin-zack">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/22961-listening-post-top-media-stories-2007-28-dec-07-part-2 2008-06-13T15:30:05Z aljazeera <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bU69UN4mY-Q&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bU69UN4mY-Q&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/22961-listening-post-top-media-stories-2007-28-dec-07-part-2"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/24505" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>The Listening Post looks back at the top 15 media stories of 2007.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/22961-listening-post-top-media-stories-2007-28-dec-07-part-2">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/22959--gregorian-chant-2 2008-06-13T15:30:01Z Elin48 <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YYnzL5IuK3M&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YYnzL5IuK3M&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/22959--gregorian-chant-2"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/24503" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p></p> </div> <a href="/blog/22959--gregorian-chant-2">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/22958--do-the-hustle-the-dance 2008-06-13T15:30:28Z Elin48 <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/u-FhczpCZ84&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/u-FhczpCZ84&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/22958--do-the-hustle-the-dance"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/24502" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p></p> </div> <a href="/blog/22958--do-the-hustle-the-dance">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/20306-uncle-jay-explains-the-news-december-3-2007 2008-06-14T03:31:08Z Mary Wallace <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HUiObG0llr4&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HUiObG0llr4&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/20306-uncle-jay-explains-the-news-december-3-2007"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/20013" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p></p> </div> <a href="/blog/20306-uncle-jay-explains-the-news-december-3-2007">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/19669-lily-episode-21 2008-07-24T12:33:53Z FILMPOW <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ma_dhr44vOg&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ma_dhr44vOg&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/19669-lily-episode-21"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/19340" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>www.ProfessorAlbert.com - I'm sorry.

From his 1984 debut novel "Neuromancer", in which he envisioned both the Internet and virtual reality before either existed, to his most recent novel, "Pattern Recognition", which probed cultural changes in the US since 9/11, Gibson has repeatedly demonstrated a unique ability to see the odd shapes, bulges, and empty spaces created by information as it leaks out, indicators of events of extreme weirdness and secrecy.</p> <p>His exploration of our chaotic present continues in "Spook Country", a contemporary novel of political paranoia. - Cody's Books</p> <p>William Ford Gibson is an American-born science fiction author who has been called the father of the cyberpunk subgenre of science fiction, partly due to coining the term "cyberspace" in 1982, and partly because of the success of his first novel, "Neuromancer," which has sold more than 6.5 million copies worldwide since its publication in 1984.</p> </div> <a href="/blog/11289-william-gibson-excerpt-from-spook-country">Watch the video</a> http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/9811-thriller-in-manilla 2008-06-18T03:32:50Z The Ointment <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gPGpuVtQ26g&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gPGpuVtQ26g&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/9811-thriller-in-manilla"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/9957" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>Today's news: Foreign cars are overtaking the US economy but the President has a plan!
