ATD paperback cover

[Mark Kohut]

Great recreated memory, Monte.....I for one had forgotten.....
  And this captures the possibility of ...History in TRPs vision....
  Wonderful....
   
  Not an inevitablity, a "reduction to certainty" as inevitability would imply/entail....
   
  Thanks,
  MK

   See, I just picked up a copy of the paperback today... and my response was... WTF does this have to do with AtD?  
   
  p.1070, Kit helping Renzo adapt a plane:
   
   “A very steep dive, not like when you go down in a spin, here you’d be controlling it all the way—release the bomb as close to target as you can get, then pull up sharply again to get out of the way of the explosion..."
  
   
  ...They were soon going so fast that something happened to time, and maybe they’d slipped for a short interval into the Future, the Future known to Italian Futurists, with events superimposed on one another, and geometry straining irrationally away in all directions including a couple of extra dimensions as they continued hellward, a Hell that could never contain Kit’s abducted young wife, to which he could never go to rescue her, which was actually Hell-of-the-future, taken on into its functional equations, stripped and fire-blasted of everything emotional or accidental. . . .
    And then Renzo had pulled them up in a shuddering prop-to-tail assault on airframe integrity, and they were sailing above the river as if it was all just a Sunday spin.
