Dill: Don't climb too high on the jungle gym. Alice: Why? Dill: I heat its upper reaches are inhabited by a lost race of wild children with monkey feet and tails. Dill: They subsist on a diet of acorns, squirrels and safety patrol crossing guards. Alice: Acorns? Yuk.

Dill will grow up to be the programming chief of Automatic Pleasure Stims, Inc., the government front-firm manufacturing our brain implants. The underground Resistance, of which his wife, Alice, will be a secret member, will deride “Pinheads.” [Apologies to Larry Niven.]
