Correspondence
by Ruthanna Emrys
Dena Feinberg, a psychology grad student who dreams of being a hard scientist and/or a
Victorian time traveler, writes a compelling message on a stone table for future time
travelers.
The hard part was figuring out what to say. I needed something that would matter enough
to the inventors of time travel that they would want to come visit me, right along with Jesus and Galileo and Heinlein.
