Forgive me. I am trying, very slowly, to write an essay that is already two weeks late, and it's not going well. I've been remiss in responding to people, and my apologies for that, but it'll probably be a few days yet before I manage to catch up. *ducks head* My apologies.
Also? Sanctuary is bad for you! I'm trying to research factory innovations and their subsequent social effects, and one of the key figures there, of course, is Thomas bloody Edison. It's a very strange sensation to be researching someone so long dead, for an academic essay, and still feeling a surge of petty, personal dislike every time I read his name -_-; Not to mention the brief surge of vindicated satisfaction when reading that Henry Ford, after some strenuous convincing and much objection, eventually chose AC over DC. Last nail in a coffin, there. All this, on behalf of a man also long dead. Sanctuary, and Nikola Tesla, you've a lot to bloody answer for!
