What I thought of ‘The Lost World’ by Michael Crichton

The day Universal Pictures reversed a truck full of money into Michael Crichton’s driveway and covered his lawn was the day he was inspired to write a sequel to Jurassic Park. Sat on his desk chair made from wads of filthy money he dictated this exact literary equation to his billion dollar typing droid ‘Dinosaurs 2.0 x 1 Dimensional Humans + Implausible Volcanic Island’. The droid worked long and worked hard for up to four hours that day. At the end a perfectly formed by the numbers sequel was birthed from the printer. Michael was there of course, he likes to be present when all his stories are born…

The fact that a question can be phrased in a grammatically correct English sentence doesn’t make it meaningful, or entitle it to our serious attention.
