"He'd get away with it for just twelve months the time it would take to get the news to Terra and for a Federation Space Navy task-force to get here. And then, there'd be little bits of radioactive geek floating around this system as far out as the orbit of Beta Hydrae VII." "That's quite true," von Schlichten agreed. "The point is, does Orgzild know it?
"Why, look at the chips of concrete knocked off the jamb of the door here! Must have been some tall mace-work where you're standing, Beta!
He produced a field-survey instrument and held it over the bag Rick carried. The instrument's meter showed a reading at once. "Gamma," Baxter stated. "Now let's try for alpha and beta." He opened a shield on the bottom of his instrument and checked the sample again. The meter failed to respond. "No beta. That's interesting."
According to growth rings on trees, last spring was the driest in the Beta Piedmont in centuries, so most of them survived, and as they're parthenogenetic females, they all laid eggs. This spring, it was even drier, so now they have land prawns all over central Beta. And I don't know that anything can be done about them." "Well, did he think you were just guessing?"

It was the time of the Venezuela incident when there was imminent danger of misunderstanding between Britain and America.

"If I remember rightly and at the time this cathedral was built I followed the plans with some care the entrance is back of the main southern cluster of pillars over there at the transept-crossing. Come on, Beta. In a minute we can see whether thousand-year-old memories are any good or not!"
The bus won't be here for another half-hour." They sat down on a bench by the path. "For instance, Gerald Carter, he's published a novel. He absolutely roars when people mention immortality.
