Gregor, I'm of the opinion that taking risks with your story was one of the things that made it as exceptional as it was. My hat's off to you, man; really nice work.
As for summarizing the assault on the Japanese bioterrorism lab, it was a risk. I decided that if I couldn't cover all the action they way I wanted to, I wouldn't cover any of it. Nevertheless, if I were rewriting it for publication I'd definitely want to flesh out that last section. It came out as more abrupt than I had intended.
One final thought: this contest is like aerobic exercise for the mind. It makes me think in unusual ways in order to link the photos, and I value that immensely.
I'm checked in. Sparky, let's rumble!
