Notes: This is a really good story and could have been developed into a novel or at least a story for The Twilight Zone. A scientist invents a way to create life... and gets removed from everyones mind by The Rulers, those who have st up the earth as an experiment and remove everyone who invents stuff that would benifit mankind too much. "Now I know why mankind fights and kills each other in disastrous wars... why advancements are so long in being realized!" Yeah, right. If it was ever turned into a novel I guess the protagonist would learn that the Rulers in fact protect mankind from even bigger mistakes, such as inventing life out of nothing and time travel. After which he decides to kill them anyway, because we should learn for ourselves.
As we do here. - Ger A.
