I'm glad you enjoyed the story--thanks for commenting about it!

I, too, wish I'd had a Civics teacher as interesting as Ray. Alas, I did not. ;)

There might be a sequel-of-sorts, later on--I'm thinking of it as an expansion of this story, rather than a following story that can stand on its own. If I succeed in finishing the expansion credibly, I'll comment here, again, to let you know!
