• La humanidad actual es como un soñador despierto, atrapado entre las fantasías del sueño y el caos del mundo real. La mente busca pero no encuentra el lugar y la hora precisos. Hemos creado una civilización de la Guerra de las Galaxias, con emociones de la Edad de Piedra, instituciones medievales y tecnología divina. Damos tumbos. Estamos terriblemente confundidos por el mero hecho de existir, y somos un peligro para nosotros mismos y para el resto de la vida.

Summer is a moving creature and likes to go south for the winter.
