Chapter Twelve Schmidt - 3750 C.E. "Schmidt?" Paul wondered. "Why are we stopping at Schmidt? And why is the colony called that anyway. Was there ever a famous Schmidt?" "I'm sure there was," said the captain of the space cruiser. "And I'm sure there are many Schmidts who are worthy to have a colony named after them. This colony, however, is named after Ro...
Hello readers, long time no see! A short chapter, but I'm hoping there won't be too much of a wait before the next one.

This is going to be a long day....

The cab driver smiled; his fare tonight was not typical; he'd asked his name and smiled as he made sure he pronounced it correctly.
