Well you seemed to already have assessed the situation. I suspect you are looking for one of us to condone an action that you have already decided upon.

I suggest explaining your situation to your contacts. That will atleast clear the air and make you feel a little lighter. The main issues here are ethics and morals. Both of which are highly subjective and open to liberal interpretations.

Use the one that allows you to survive. In the end, what is it that you want to end up with? A better paying job? A clear conscience?

The undesirable situations are temporary and should not factor at all. You're getting caught up in the how. Focus on what it is you want out of this situation. From there it's just as your old physics teacher said. The quickest path between two points is a straight line. Don't complicate things by calculating all the traps and toils. Just soar towards where you want to go and try your best not to fall.



As for the book discussion, I'm sure I'm much too late, but schoolwork has been strangling my attention span.

Let me see. I would certainly reccomend Isaac Asimov for the Sci-fi lover.(specifically Caves of Steel or I, Robot[the foundation series is also a winner]) But the holy grail of Sci-fi has to be Frank Herbert's Dune. It is the Lord of the Rings of Sci-fi.

Horror...Hrm... It's been a while since I've read a book that actually scared me. And that's what every horror fan seeks. The last was a book called "The Dark" Can't remember the author and I can't find it on the net... Weird... H.P. Lovecraft is my personal standard. The Statement of Randolph Carter(cheesy as it may be) gave me pretty harsh nightmares.

Mystery... Nero Wolfe series (by Rex Stout) Sherlock Holmes(Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) Hercule Poirot(Agatha Christie) Darkly Dreaming Dexter(Can't remember)

Fantasy:

The Dark is Rising series(Cooper)



Most of my reads are non-fiction factual histories and other philosophical works. But I do make occasion to read the odd fiction.
