The Ultimate Inferior Beings
““We have entered the Pseudogravitic Continuum,” announced LEP.
The view through the main control room’s observation windows changed very slightly.
LEP felt he should add something informative and educational. “If you were a dog or a bat,” he started, “you would hear a very high-pitched whistle right now.”
“But I’m not.”
“No,” said LEP. “But if you were, you would hear the Ultrasonic Background Reverberation that permeates the Pseudogravitic Continuum. It’s high-pitched because of the partially ...non-Euclidean geometry here.”
“Why are you telling me this, LEP?”
“I aim to educate as well as entertain.”
“No comment. So tell me, how long are we going to be in here?”
“About minus 46 seconds.”
jixX raised an eyebrow.
“Minus?”
“That’s right. Time travels backwards here, and at a slower rate relative to our Universe.”
jixX looked at his watch. As far as he could tell, time was still travelling forwards. “Shouldn’t we be out by now?”
“Hmm,”MoreLess
