Murder by PowerPoint

A story.

I am eternally grateful that I got out of the service before PowerPoint fixed its death grip on the armed forces. Oh, there were overhead projectors and such, but it took more effort to make the transparencies and most people didn't bother because transparency sheets cost money and somebody had to pay for all that.
