Wonderful reading too, Jesse! I recently listened to Steve Martin reading one of his books - - very similar tone and delivery. Well done indeed. It is a great, masterfully-written story.

I need to listen to this story a couple of more times, because I get the feeling that there's layers upon layers of story here... and I've only gotten a couple of 'em.

Please try it again -- it should work. The problem was with the tracking service we use. Their server went down, and since it relied on redirects, that meant nobody could get to <i>our</i> stuff... I've taken all the tracking links out from all of our files until I get some assurance from them that it's not just fixed, but <b><i>fixed</i></b>. On the story itself: Your memory's good, Jeffry. I totally forgot to mention that it was first published in the late great <i>Science Fiction Age</i> in 1998. And yes, since then it's been in a few anthologies (<i>Northern Suns</i> is a good one, BTW), not to mention all over the place online thanks to the Creative Commons license.

Also, do I have deja vu or did I read this story a couple of years ago in F&SF or Asimovs or even way back in Science Fiction Age? I know I read it, a long time ago, but when??
