Not sure how useful these are...
Re: Not sure how useful these are...

*/ Gary Morris, "Who Am I", 3:27 /*
He thinks that man is me
He knew him at a glance!
That stranger he has found
This man could be my chance!
Why should I save his hide?
Why should I right this wrong
When I have come so far
And struggled for so long?
If I speak, I am condemned.
If I stay silent, I am damned!
I am the master of hundreds of workers.
They all look to me.
How can I abandon them?
How would they live
If I am not free?
If I speak, I am condemned.
If I stay silent, I am damned!
Who am I?
Can I condemn this man to slavery
Pretend I do not feel his agony
This innocent who bears my face
Who goes to judgement in my place
Who am I?
Can I conceal myself for evermore?
Pretend I'm not the man I was before?
And must my name until I die
Be no more than an alibi?
Must I lie?
How can I ever face my fellow men?
How can I ever face myself again?
My soul belongs to God, I know
I made that bargain long ago
He gave me hope when hope was gone
He gave me strength to journey on
Who am I? Who am I?
I am Jean Valjean!
And so Javert, you see it's true
That man bears no more guilt than you!
Who am I?
24601!

I think that looks an awful lot like a way to cure amnesia. Well, that, or make Doug feel like a redeemed criminal for 3.5 minutes, but who's to tell?
I'd have the code for this song engraved in a highly visible area near the keypad on Doug's helmet, if it does the first one. I could easily see him getting a head injury in a moment of relaxation, forgetting who he is, finding the helmet (or being led to it by friends), seeing the keypad, and entering the code written down right next to it, just to see what it did.

My Unitarian Jihad Name is: Brother Atom Bomb of Courteous Debate. Get yours.

I've been writing a bit.
