Imagine that we share our reality with many others, both geographical and
temporal.
As we move inexorably from one day to the next, as on a mechanical escalator,
so, too, are other times moving on their own escalators.
Those metaphorical devices do
not always move at the same speed relative to one another.
Time slips and slides.
In the
gaps, one can pass through…if one knows the way.
But beware, traveler: fifty years in
the future may not be fifty years in your future.
And customs may be very strange
indeed…

I opened the front door and stepped into the darkened hallway.
Turning on a lamp,
I called out, “Anybody home?” but received no reply; indeed, the house had the feel of
emptiness.
This was odd, because I had been detained on an interview for a story, and
expected my sister to have arrived well before me.
A small notecard was on the side table
near the entrance.
Have been asked to conduct a small investigation out of town.
