Tempora Mutantur
by H. G. Stratmann
While dining at his favorite quiet rib joint, a private man is interrupted by billionaire
businessman Rem Caesar who is being chased by time travelers.
If someone built a time machine, they’d be famous for all time. A magnet for every time
traveling historian, media-type, tourist—or just “fans” with no lives of their own,
coming back to bask in their idol’s luminous prescence.
“Tempora Mutantur” by H. G. Stratmann, in
Analog, July/August 1999.
