Subject: We have a plot idea!

Rayle gave us a stunning plot idea that should be wonderfully inclusive. This is it, in his own words:

An organization known as the Church of Neuracomp has decided to spread it�s influence and has begun to gather a following among Kiyonis� citizens. They, naturally, encourage feel to find ones inner self and so the path to spirituality. Their methods however, are a bit unorthodox, so to speak.
While they encourage weekly attendance to sermons or �Truth Speaking�, various rituals, and the like, they have one distinct feature. They offer a way to find the True Path by using a machine.
Followers hook themselves up to Neuracomp programmed machines through use of a brainjack, and are submersed in what they believe to be a truly divine experience. They leave the churches amazed, filled with joy and feeling completely enlightened. This, unfortunately, only lasts a few hours. So the masses are more than eager to return each week. Skeptics have dubbed it the �Sixth Star Drug�, SSD.
There are other problems too. Neuracomp is fiercely intolerant towards music, performance, art and free expression in general. Also the church encourages its followers to only buy products and services provided by the church itself.

Any opinions, comments, suggestions on modifying/improving the plot? Both Leigh and I want to start the plot when Neuracomp has already been pretty well established. What do you guys think? Speak, or forever hold your peace.
