Dear Daniel,

I wholeheartedly like, in fact love the idea that OST is designed to subvert illegitimate authority. That your meeting with Harrison was not orchestrated using the principles of OST is the only reason that I am not taking umbrage at the non-appearance of females amongst your party. I trust that the principles of self-organisation would never have allowed such a tragedy to occur. Yet alas, when other powers take the reigns and so forth. I don't normally comment on such things, sitting in the luxurious position of post-feminism and all that, but seeing as the space has been opened for the conversation to happen...

Kind regards,
Amerie - Ms.
