People of Earth:

Do you have something to say? Is it worth saying?

Is it worth reading?

Should it survive a thousand years? Longer?

Will anyone beyond your time understand its context?

Or will it just be one more thing for the kids of the 29th Century to memorize, while secretly despising you?

"I was thrilled to learn that I had overtaken Virgil by the 25th Century, but later apalled to learn in the 31st Century, I was replaced by Robort Tweak, the robot bard. I eagerly await rediscovery on Epsilon Eridani 4. They are just entering an era of brutally selfish retrenchment."

- Sir Reginald Stoppard, Earthling.
