It has been sent, thi6. I am undergoing some changes now thanks to the only set of feedback I have received so far. Please provide me feedback you guys, it isn’t that long. I am interested in unanswered questions, grammar, and plot holes. If some of my pseudo-science doesn’t make a lick of sense, I want to hear about that too.

Fire all mail torpedoes! On second thought, just send a subspace message.

IIRC Hans Morovec and Fred Pohl once collaborated on a story based on a similar concept.
