Oh, come on now. The question of what happens when a man dies can
hardly be considered uninteresting. Some would argue that this
question is what has driven man to civilization and the pursuit of
knowledge. I hardly think this is "one of the least interesting"
topics BRAINSTORM could have pursued, particularly given the need
to write a story, and not just a collection of interesting extrapolations.
