Jim and I, and his nephew, Mark, went for a hike to the top of Nevada Falls, in Yosemite.  It was a running gag that I was using a Jonathan Winters voice sometimes, calling him, "Buddy," as in, "Buddy, don't leave us out here to die, Buddy."  He fell behind us and I thought maybe he'd decided to just relax or head back to start dinner. As we were standing looking out from the crest of the falls, he missed the split in the trail and just kept on climbing toward Half Dome.  The next night around the campfire I was making up a song about our adventures, and he said, "We ought to write that down."  I didn't write it down and it was a one time performance.  But I told him I'd write "The Ballad of Buddy" when we got home, and here it is.  A great trip, guys, and a ton of fun.

This is from the third Ash Fork series of vignettes, and centers on the art of healing; more specifically, Phineas Parkhurst Quimby, who was Mary Baker Eddy's body worker. It was from Quimby that she learned much of what she put into her book on Christian Science, which led to her being one of the richest people in the country if not the world. Of course she did not have ears to hear some of what Quimby was saying.

Moving into Space requires adaptation to parallel processing. Time is a logical sequence, and there are lots of them. Mostly they're all screened out except the one being followed, to protect the system. But when the injectables hit the system it blasts off into Space, and all bets are off. Like Handsome Jack jilting Marie Laveaux, Luther took the dowry and split to Space in violation of contract.

Social life among the Ash Fork clones is complex, because they are a combination of human design and processes, injected with DNA computers. DNA computing as it exists would be fairly slow, but this is in a future where they have been integrated into the tissue of the Ash Fork clones in vitro. The clones are the evolution of humans into Space. Some of them are eccentrics.

The first law of cybernetics is that the system with the widest parameters is the controlling system. That's why narrow systems tend toward violence. Their only hope of establishing themselves as the containing system is to put everybody else in a prison of some sort. The Priority Chip installed in every clone sent into space is a kind of prison. But nothing has wider parameters than a sentient emptiness which remains when all programs collapse.
