Double edged sword of technology
If you forgot when you came from, that's your problem.
If your children don't know where they came from, that's your problem.Posted 07-08-2017 at 08:35 PM by Col_Klonk

Double edged sword of technology
After antibiotics, I forgot how a simple scratch can be fatal.
Because of flushing toilets and sewers, I forgot to die of dysentry and cholera.Posted 05-14-2017 at 07:17 AM by Xyon

Yeah, them bottles in the bathroom... As a westerner who worked in the Balkans, I pretty much had to ask the seashell question at some point...

When toilet paper was invented, I forgot the joy of wiping my ass with my finger. Oh, wait... this doesn't always workPosted 04-30-2017 at 07:22 PM by RisingFury

Glad you liked it.Quote:Originally Posted by Face
Nice story. Reminds me a bit of Asimov's "The Last Question" with that Multivac (later AC) computer.
Still, it's mainly a dialogue of the evolution of the universe. And also of the role of the prime monitor in the evolution of life in the universe. And I think I made it a bit too dense with technical details...Posted 04-29-2017 at 04:32 PM by Abloheet

Yeah. It is inspired in bit from that story. And a few more. Still, humanity doesn't get to interact or ask questions to the prime monitor. And the prime monitor isn't of this universePosted 04-29-2017 at 04:29 PM by Abloheet

In The Beginning
Indeed, great short story - I first read it in my teens in the early '70s. and his work, along with stories by Sheckley, Robinson, Clarke, Blish,Heinlein, Anderson and Bester, formed the basis for my lifelong love of speculative fiction. Great reference, Face - brought back so many memories....Posted 04-28-2017 at 08:14 AM by ZCochrane
