Absolutely! There is very much to learn from Stencil's stories. We
know that some of the events contained in them are parts of history,
but the minor players and minor disasters that may have influenced the
way history was actually played out still might have happened in the
way Stencil describes. The ebb and flow toward whatever apocalypse
might occur is the stuff of life if not history. These are my favorite
parts of the book anyway, especially the Vheissu bits.
