VLVL2(3): A Real Revolution

[Dave Monroe]

   "'So--she's in with all these Mob snitches, the
money disappears, but you still have her file, you can
punch her up when you need her--'
   "'Wrong.  Her file is destroyed.'  The word hung in
the wood space, between percussive attacks from next
door.
   "'Why?  Thought you guys never destroyed a file,
'th all 'ese little fund, defund, refund games--'
   "'We don't know why.  But it's no game in
Washington--chale ese--this ain't tweakin around no
more with no short-term maneuvers here, this is a real
revolution, not that little fantasy hand-job you
people was into, is it's a groundswell, Zoyd, the wave
of History, and you can catch it, or scratch it.'"
(VL, Ch. 3, p. 27)
