Today's Chicago Tribune has an article below the fold on the front page of
the Perspective section that is so UA I can scarcely believe it.  It
documents a conspiracy of newspaper writers that began in 1965 and spread,
as a viral meme, throughout the country.

The purpose of the conspiracy?  To refer to an 'occult hand' in newspaper
articles.

I think back on the bit in "To Go" about how unwitting avatars find
themselves working catchphrases into their speech and I can't help smiling.
The only difference is, I had Messenger avatars muttering "What's the
scoop?"

So close.  Ah well.

The Order of the Occult Hand is real!
