You have just paused your walk down the windowless corridor in the Ministry of Truth. Big Brother watches from the telescreen. He is delivering a continuous recitation of the latest pig-iron production figures. The hallway is empty of other members of the Party. You hold a small notebook open in your hands. The broadcast echoes down the length of the hall.
