[Scott Eiler]

Finally the Powernaut is in his element.

I finished this episode at a hunting lodge near the Grand Canyon North 
Rim.  That's how I relax on vacation.

I had fun building the Laotian temple in this episode.  I built it out 
of Laotian temples.  I put four Laotian temples at the corners, a 
Laotian temple at the gate, and a big Laotian temple in the middle.

Bonus Section:  Excerpts from the Powernaut's Briefing:  Louis the 
Secret Vichy Boy King

There is modern-day commentary at 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchism_in_France .

...

There are many factions of French Royalists. The House of Bourbon 
governed to 1789, the House of Orleans as late as 1848, and the House of 
Bonaparte to 1870. Each faction has at least one candidate to become the 
restored monarch of France. The factions of course argue over their 
candidates' legitimacy.

In France during World War 2, some Royalists considered the fall of the 
French Republic to be the will of God. One such faction of the Bourbons 
has taken refuge in a remote region of the former French Indochina, 
along with their royal candidate whom they have declared to be Louis XIX.

Louis is twelve years old. He is spoiled and manipulative, but 
accustomed to being protected. He may well have the most powerful 
bodyguards money can buy.
