Some Dream Theater story
Summary
Here used to be a story relating to the prog metal band Dream Theater.
But it's not at this URL anymore! Because the address spread and all of
a sudden there were all sorts of access activity on the page.. it was
not really meant as a means to give new life to the story, rather, an
URL to point people to that answered a very specific and frequently
asked question.

Any offensively categorical statements passed off as facts herein should only be construed
as my very opinionated opinions.
But hey, opinions are what caused these pages to congeal into existence from the great quantum cloud of uncertainties and possibilities in the first place, thereby obliterating a little corner of the Great Chaos and creating some local order at the unavoidable expense of an infinitesimal sub-ripple in the gradient of global heat-death-hastening entropy we so-called "sentient life forms" leave in our wake whilst our hapless thinking-organs (starved, startled, drowned, poisoned, atrophied, overworked, underpaid, undernourished, damaged, and with alkaloids (various methylxanthines but mainly 3,7-dihydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione) saturated chunks of wetware that valiantly struggle on in the thankless Sisyphos' quests of maintaining the fragile equilibrium between our minds' internal baseline chaos and a hostile external artificial world order (in which we (as a young and inadequate race of erect hominids) were clearly not designed to function), mere moments from the abyss — the glamourous life of the severely paranoid/schizophrenic/cacatonic inmate: forced admission, institutionalization, electroshock therapy, a cozy padded cell, and a thorazine and lithium diet, as opposed to my much more desirable alternative i.e. about 350 mg of caffeine parenterally, twice a day (double that dose in the event of agrypnia)) emanate (sometimes seemingly by semantic fetters unbound) structures isomorphic to thought, after being put in various self-inflicted stimulant-induced states of near-psychotic akathisia, so therefore I sort of like opinions.
