If I wrote a novel about the advent of teleporters in the current world, it would probably be a sci-fi thriller. ( If I had to condense the plot and set it to music, it would sound something like THIS - )

...good grief. PLEASE write this. It would be the best SF novel ever.

Or if you don't do that, at least send those lyrics to Blue Oyster Cult, cos it sounds like something they could do an awesome job with. ;)

Heh. A lot of it fell out of the time I asked myself the question of how teleporters could be introduced without utterly smashing the world economy. The novel, such as it is, revolves around what happens when this softly-softly approach is *not* followed.

And yes, every phrase and lyric has a corresponding scene and plot point. The tune, of course, is "We Didn't Start The Fire."

And of course I'm now sitting here singing it and giggling like an idiot...

Drat! Now it's gonna be stuck in my head for days...

I demand that this be made into an actual song.
