WASHINGTON, D.C. / 2230WATER IS POLITICAL. THIRST IS NOT.

The Oracle. New terms available.

Marcus Cain

His cuffs are clean, his kitchens are open, and yesterday's worthless pledge may qualify for tomorrow's offer.

Cain sells a future that has learned from the mistakes of the previous future. His presentations used to concern desalination ventures. Now they concern a more personal form of renewal.

Bring him a failed Second Coming pledge and he can explain how discipline, reserves, and confidence will make it useful again. The kitchens do serve food. A person choosing where to stand in line has reason to notice that before investigating his biography.

He likes a public accounting of other people's promises. His own accounts require a longer appointment.

The stewards keeping his queues in order answer to a quieter man. Cain calls him brother. People listening carefully have noticed that the courtesy is not returned.
