Rat Trap
“Jeff didn’t mind Rat sending him away again. He could use some alone time, too, to try to come up with a new plan.
The cafeteria was empty. Jeff went to one of the food dispensers on the wall, punched in his account, then chose a ham sandwich and a bowl of tomato soup for himself. His hand hovered over the deli meats selector. Heck, why not? Rat needed some strong cheering up. He pressed “liverwurst.” With a slide and a meaty thud, the plastic tube dropped onto the tray.
He put the liverwurst i...n his pocket, then carried his food to a table, reminding himself to have Rat erase the purchase record in this food dispenser.
Jeff chewed a bite of sandwich thoughtfully.
Mom often said, “Science lurches forward on eureka moments.” Her favorite example was how the ring-like chemical structure of benzene came to Friedrich August von Kekule in a dream where he saw whirling snakes, one eating its own tail.
Jeff desperately needed a eureka moment like that.
Mom also said, “The road to the brink of insight is paved with hard work, constant focus, and by asking the right questions.”MoreLess
