weight when you and your platform are suspended over a vat of nitric acid.

electrical layout. The electrical system has been tampered with. You have
seventeen minutes to find the problem and correct it before the reactor
melts down.

form of life had developed 500,000 years earlier, with special attention to
the probable effect, if any, on the Philippine social spectrum circa 1640.
