Swine! Too long! Now here is your guide to these adventures of the mind, the editor of a astounding science-fiction magazine, Tom Campbell Jr. In the biblical story of the handwriting on the wall, everybody could see that handwriting.

The king, Belshazzar, could see it clearly enough. Some ways he couldn't tell what it meant, if you recall he had to call in an interpreter. A lot of people can see handwriting in the wall.

He doesn't want to admit that it's an absolute limitation, that cannot. He starts saying, well, this is my fault. He won't let me. That's considered a situation of that type. My name is Lester McClellan, Secretary General of the United Nations.

It was a busy day in the year 2180. They invited all from an all independent colony on Venus, who's due to see me that morning. And there was a note on my desk requesting me to call Dr. Kingston, head of the UN research Bureau, soon as I had a chance.
