After the whole IRANIAN GAOL episode...I remember talking to MCDONALD about it in relation to Sci-fi authors who were predicting an escalation of more and more extreme and 'crazy' cultural pursuits/holidays/hobbies/TV big brother stuff...you name it..ending up with ROLLERBALL type TV games...ROMAN ARENAS...that sort of thing...

I figured as a joke, that he could sell the above as an 'extreme holiday' because I had found out that there would be 'takers'...as in:

LITERARY CAMP IRAN

"You too can write your very own SEVEN PILLARS OF WISDOM - aided by our supportive staff and coaching team...medical insurance and corrective surgery included in the price"...

Anyway, in the end - the CRAZY COMPANY wrote their own SEVEN PILLARS OF WISDOM and it was 'the complete study of the Islamic sign language system'...says MCDONALD.
