In any case, I now have a Motivation for the male lead--not a very effective motivation, but an interesting one--and sailing should be smoother.
Revenge? It must be revenge. It's the best motivation there is. Whatever he's doing in the book, you can't go wrong with revenge.

Even positive actions are just REVENGE for all the positive stuff they inflicted on you.

 One could make a flimsy case for positive revenge for the positive things you have done for them.

Yeah, it's a sort of revenge.  It's the "revenge by being successful" model, though, which I intend to poke a number of holes in.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Sex is just a submotivation of survival. Otherwise known as the 'who wants to live forever? me!' drive.

That's an interesting combination.

Would explain all the puppies and legions of children found in every fortress, but that's more like playing DF for the sex.  I suppose you could say people play it to get away from sex, judging by the number of fans who intentionally model themselves on Nikola Tesla's abstinence.
