Ambivalent morning. Lot of people getting up in crowded houses. Orion had parked his belt in the sky just over the summit of the west wing at Big Pink. The Beaver Moon was gone, finally, and the first question was whether those three bright orbs had familiar names, like Sirius. Or something different. These three […]

This was on the screen glowing on the device on the conference room. We assumed was set to “alert” to encourage some sort of response. This one was from DeMille and addressed to whoever was supposed to be listening for phones or alerts in the morning. Getting it sent involved an interaction between the Building […]
