Tj here: I must disagree. When someone is fed once a day, a cold tin
of soup (that he must share with his pet), and locked in his room only
allowed out 2 times a day on bathroom breaks, When his only thought is
that "He is more hungery NOW then before he had a mouth full of soup.
IS starvation (slow and painful... death, 'cause ya can't live on
that... tissue breaks down and you get sick and you die.) I know of
FEWER prisons with stricker lock down rules.
And it is not movie contanimation... I just re-read the book.
Sorry if I sound snippy.. but gosh jail would be too good for someone
like Vernon if you read about him in your Daily Newspaper.
