| 1. | It looks like 'precursor' is indicating the first letter, but that's not what it means | | 2. | Don't like stuff in brackets. And it's another 1984/book reference. | | 3. | I don't see "precursor" as an initial indicator, unless I'm missing something. | | 4. | "as in 1984" is not fully satisfactory as a definition, but the Orwellian surface is imaginatively handled – more so than in 7 & 28 |
