things are remembered differently
@Sixgun77 My time in the former Yugoslavia during the Wars of Dissolution is my base for apocalypse, The extremes of poverty of my childhood isn’t quite up there.

@Sixgun77 Ever seen the erasure of entire populations of towns and villages off the map? Place reduced to a ghost that will haunt the future? That’s more universal than deaths by poverty and drugs in the worst bruised lip places of the English coast.

@Sixgun77 Because having live through one and seen one firsthand, I know what feels more universal in effect for those places it happened to, what feels truly apocalyptic.

@Sixgun77 When I put that word in Adams mouth, I really wasn’t using the word in the way you seem to think I was.

@Sixgun77 Because it is a piece of fiction taking place in the sort of magical landscape where after having read James Morgan PryseÛªs The Apocalypse Unsealed, Adams, really can and does feel those places are on edge of something universal.

@Sixgun77 Yes, but you comment took on a form of interpretation. I merely point out, that’s not the interpretation of the character, nor the way or why he used that word.

@Sixgun77 Hookland is given away as free playground, which makes it the death of author intent. However, when someone interprets it in a way that comes across as a bit snide, as if people aren’t weren’t aware of the state of England, I can feel the need to point out the original intent.

@Sixgun77 As you say, author intent, but I found your use of the original tweet a bit snide, A derogatory assumption that people weren’t aware of those facts. It’s rare for pick up on a comment, but that one did seem a bit latent vituperative.
