[LINK] Deus_ex_machina: a dramatic device

[Kim Holburn]

Actually there's a delightfull wikipedia entry that linkers might  
appreciate

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deus_ex_machina>

> The phrase has been extended to refer to any resolution to a story  
> which does not pay due regard to the story's internal logic and is  
> so unlikely it challenges suspension of disbelief
