In a 25th century where the vast majority of people have stunted intelligence (or at least
talk with poor grammar), a physicist accidentally sends a medical bag back through time to
Dr. Bayard Full, a down-on-his-luck, generally drunk, always callously self-absorbed,
dog-kicking shyster. Despite falling in with a guttersnipe of a girl, Annie Aquella, he tries
to make good use of the gift.
Switch is right. It was about time travel. What we call travel through time. So I took
the tube numbers he gave me and I put them into the circuit-builder; I set it for
‘series’ and there it is-my time-traveling machine. It travels things through time
real good.
