While visiting the asteroid L35B05 I saw, in a museum set up for the education of human beings, an artificial crystal of great beauty. It was tetrahedral in shape and each glowing side projected a hologram full of quaint images of those odd beings that had dwelled in this asteroid a very long time ago. After gazing at the output of all four facets with wonder and admiration, I was filled with an urge to write a verbal equivalent to this crystal.I fetched the curator in order that he might explain the moving pictures to me and thus learned that by viewing the outputs in the correct sequence, a story was presented in its entirety that was actually coherent on its own terms. I now take the opportunity to dedicate my work to Evolution and Mutation. For no one has escaped natural selection altogether, and no one ever can, but as for myself I hope the effort will not impair my genes.

But none of that is my fault. I wanted to teach a proper discipline such as ecology,...
