- “It’s Not ‘The Lady or the Tiger,’ It’s ‘Which Tiger?’” by Ian Randal Strock, in Analog, April 2014.
When searching for a long-lost ancestor (possibly depressed) whose actions literally gave you a good life, a time traveler would be well advised to frequent said ancestor’s watering holes.
I came back to offer you comfort, love, happiness, a life of ease.
