A writer I respect told me I should concentrate on writing fiction more than opinion editorials. He said I should focus on what I appear to do best. This is a short little sci-fi story I whipped up tonight. Let me know if you like it.

It is complete. I wrote it in the style of another writer I admire, Terry Bisson, who wrote the Sci-Fi short They're Made of Meat!
