I closed my eyes and called up the tables for Venus' location. I had devoured the stories about Venus by Edgar Rice Borroughs and Isaac Asimov, two of...my favorite authors. I was looking forward to seeing the jungles and forests and the strange animals that must live there. I labored over the equations and the data from the book and sent my consciousness to a location a few thousand miles above Venus and looked down.I saw an atmosphere of roiling clouds completely obscuring the ground below. Ah,. I mean you two were right there ... and I love you both ... and it was just impossible for me not to think about you that way. I'm a MAN, Lynne. We can't HELP how we think sometimes!"

It was just coincidence that it was prom night and that you had some brandy and..." I've had a crush on you for a long time too, Bob,". I was unable to get her glimpse. To my surprise, she was on her terrace and was looking at me with anger.I was staring at her and she caught me doing it from her terrace (4th floor).

I've got to make sure that I can shoehorn everything into the box I want it to fit. I know that's backwards engineering, but the concept is the size and portability, not the capability. If it was just another water decontamination system, it wouldn't be unique." How do you feel about the challenge?" Rex asked."I need a 'plumber.' A guy who knows how to put this system into a confined space.".
