This, be it understood, is fiction--nothing but fiction--and not, under any circumstances, to be considered as having any truth whatever to it. It's obviously utterly impossible. isn't it?

Chapter 46 is in the queue, which concludes the little murder mystery. It is a little longer than usual, and I refrained from adding a cliffhanger at the end. This does not mean I won't add a hook from time to time in the future. :) Happy Canadian thanksgiving!

Henderson's lovely flowers were going to bring him fame--until they walked and talked too much.

Anyone looking for guaranteed sound science will have to look elsewhere. But if it's fun you want. try the world's most potent eggnog!

That the gentleman in question was a nut was beyond question. He was an institutionalized psychotic. He was nutty enough to think he could make an atom bomb out of modeling clay!

Chapters 1-7 have been cleaned, re-edited and reposted. Chapters 8+ are on their way. Thanks for being patient. Shad.

Hi, It seems that as I was writing down the combat log of Poltergeist's Marauders, I made a mistake of not keeping to the correct pronouns for Medusa. He was not happy. It's all been fixed now. I hope. Thanks.
