    But feel free to obtain any needed information from the Government Printing Office. Even if they aren’t running those commercials anymore, they will still take care of you.

    That’s all right, Miss Austen. You may go back to your writing table.

    After completing his studies at Greater Vancouver in 2024 at a rather young age, Doctor Stuart Grimson Altwin worked in research for a few different concerns and eventually applied for a research position with the new Vacuum Transport Research Technologies branch opening in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, on South Bay between Munising and Christmas. By applied, I mean they requested his application. VTR not only accepted his application, but also assisted in obtaining his work visa and fast-tracking U. S. citizenship.

    After the deregulation glut in the late twenty-teens, companies were eager to set up in the States and import whatever expertise they could find in a newly competitive atmosphere of growth. And they had full support from the government to do it. Dr. Altwin didn’t really care where he was employed, as long as he could continue working on the Innerspace problem. VTR did care where he was employed, and was intensely interested in his work as well.

    In 2026, the understanding of how the quantum universe is constructed had taken a startling turn, largely due to his efforts. It seemed that locality and causation were not what they had always been believed to be. There were layers to the universe. There was a space within space. And that space was non-local. That is, every point in our universe was the same as far as the inner space was concerned. While this helped a little with understanding quantum entanglement, it opened more enquiries than it closed. It was more of a problem than a solution. He was, one could say, having trouble connecting the dots.

    Coincidentally (or was it?), I had a phone call this very morning from a college classmate (that would be over 50 years ago, Gentle Reader) with whom I had lost touch in the ’80s. What a rush!

    So, what care I if silly little you avoid “my calls” (which I only very rarely make, to anyone: I’m not a phone addict)?
