Under odd circumstances, you end up being cryogenically frozen for 200 years. Upon awakening, which of the following things, if any, would you be surprised to learn:
A. Shortly after you were frozen, David Skalansky became some sort of warlord, or launched a coup, and instituted a fascistic regime based on the persecution of "illogic" (Think Peter Wiggin in Ender's Game)
B. Nearly everyone has been converted to a religion/philosophy based on Sklansky's ideas. This religion's primary text has a pure black cover with no decoration whatsoever, except the letters "E" and "V" in gold ink. (The proofreading is horrible. David explains that the book was not written to get an A from his english teacher, but rather to show people how to rid their personal beliefs of fallacies. They can use the extra time they don't spend arguing reading books by Hemingway.)
C. David Sklansky's mummified corpse is on public display, a la Vladimir Lenin.
D. None of the above things is true.
