Thoughts... About Turning Research Papers into Stories

Sara M. wrote about how equality in schools is starting to go to far and trying to make everyone the same in the world.  This could easily be turned into a story with something like.... a new world ruler comes into power and forces everyone to look exactly the same and turns the world into a boring, gray place.

Or maybe Hannah H.  She wrote about how learning a second language is beneficial.  What about a story where America was invaded by all the other countries in the world, dividing the country into pieces and forcing hundreds of languages onto the people.  What would all the English-only-speaking Americans do?

And then Thomas G. wrote about keeping use of the Internet free and unrestricted. But if it continued to get worse and worse in a story, and eventually peoples' computers attacked and killed them because the cooperations had so much power, no one would be laughing.
