Having acquired the  technology to communicate globally,
he spent a decade writing to himself.

Oh, he pretended to write for a vast audience.
But, it was a phantom audience, and worse, it was an  audience that was much too busy to read, for
they were writing themselves!

Yes, each and every one was

writing

promoting,

scheming.

until they,  did in fact,  became famous writers!

EACH AND EVERY ONE!!!

You may know them by the name of
"The famous phantoms of the fabulous footstool
(of the once great twentieth century").

Yes, each and every one of them are now fully functional famous phantoms.

And how do you think he spends his time today?

Why, he pretends to write for these famous phantoms,
who never, never, ever finds the time to read, for

they are much too busy writng themseleves, and they are even MORE busy....... stayin....  famous.
