Editing Accord (section)

===Background===
Accord originally worked in [[WEDGDG]],<ref name="R1">The Watchdog group is the group Accord belonged to. Parahuman thinkers and investigative bodies keeping an eye on economy, politics and other possible shenanigans behind the scenes. - [https://redd.it/3ec7eu Excerpt] from a comment by Wildbow on Reddit</ref> an office handling economic oversight within the [[Parahuman Response Team]]. He took an afternoon off one day to solve world hunger and devised a plan that would solve it. He turned the sum of his work over to his employer who barely looked at it before demanding that he get back to work. He began siphoning and redistributing funds from his department but was discovered because he underestimated the other [[Thinker]] that worked there. He was caught, imprisoned, and then broken out by a jailbreak specialist.<ref name="I20.y e2">It was only one imbalance, one irregularity, but it had been an important one.  It had nagged at him, demanded resolution.  He ''had'' to prove it was possible.<br><br>So he’d siphoned the very funds that his department was managing.  It hadn’t been hard to redistribute some of the wealth that the villains and rogues were trying to manipulate.  One ambiguous evil for the sake of an undeniable good.  He covered his tracks flawlessly.<br><br>In the process, he failed to account for the full breadth of his newest coworker’s talents.  Thinker powers interfered with one another, and despite his ability to work with that particular drawback, even help them to work in concert, the clairvoyant had found him out.  He’d been caught, jailed, and subsequently freed by the jailbreak specialist he’d contacted well in advance. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/interlude-20/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 20.y]]</ref>

Nobody that Accord contacted took up his ideas. Government after government failed to read the documents he sent them while no one raised the subject of his work to the United Nations or any major political body.<ref name="I20.y e3">Here he was, years later.  Nobody he’d contacted had taken to his ideas, and government after government had failed to thoroughly read the documents he sent them.  Nobody raised the subject of his work to the United Nations or any major political body.  They were too interested in maintaining the status quo.<br/><br/>His plans weren’t ''observably'' closer to fruition, but he had contacts and he had wealth, and that went a long way.  He would take the slow, steady path to victory.  The binder relating to world hunger had been expanded on, with the addition of further binders to detailing the specifics.  Other sets of binders had joined it, each relating to a major issue: disease, population, government, energy, and climate.  He spent an hour and a half every morning ensuring that everything was up to date with recent changes to the economy and international politics. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/interlude-20/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 20.y]]</ref>

Accord later decided that he would take the slow, steady path to victory. He amassed contacts, wealth, expanded upon his plans, and spent half an hour each morning to ensure that everything was up to date.<ref name="I20.y e2" /> Cauldron sent him a friend to get him started.
