It's a strange story, very strange. And I have no right to expect you'll believe it. Sometimes I scarcely believe it myself. Lance Stevens is my name, but everyone called me Larry then. That was back in the 90s, you see, and I was still young.

A cub reporter on the evening news. I remember we'd finished our work that night, and we were sitting around the reference room, having some fun with old Pop Fenson, who'd kept the files for 60 years.

Honestly, Pop, don't you get bored, taking care of all these old files, all this dead news? What do you mean dead news, young man? Well, there's nothing as dead as yesterday's newspaper. Ooh, if you've got no imagination, Larry.

News is what happens. What's the difference if it happened 50 years ago or happened tomorrow? You mean well happened tomorrow? No. Time is only an illusion, my boy. This is today. But 50 years ago, it was the future.

Well, it was the future even yesterday. Take this volume for instance. All the papers for June 1850. Well, suppose we're living in 1850, and it's early May, like it is now. And I have all the papers for June.
