The next two years following the first year of the Broadband Project were a challenge indeed, and everyone in America at the time remembers this very well. But not in all aspects! People did have jobs, money to spend, and the work in the GLabs started to blend more and more with the Corporate America and the Government itself. The colleges were starting to make money on their own, more and more projects turning profitable in the end. Sure some others were busters, but the thing was, the GLabs working on those were retrofitted in record time for other projects in the works.

It was never a single GLab working on a project, but several ones in tandem, working together and exchanging people and ideas on daily basis. So retrofitting a GLab or another was not such a big deal after all, in the contrary, it was an opportunity to spur some more ideas and find new ways to improve things and the living itself. But sure, it was easier for some, and harder for others. It was easy for the children, youngsters, and open minded people, but for the ones engulfed in routine and old mentalities, it was a pain in the……..brain.

The hardest part was to remove old habits and mentalities. People used to have power over others and huge amounts of money to spend were seeing themselves stripped of both. That was making them dangerous and disruptive. Strong actions had to be taken in order to make them behave and participate in a constructive manner to the wellbeing of all others. Many of them did end up in jail, after all their assets were seized, and their bank accounts in the U.S. and abroad frozen. Nobody knew how this was possible, except some few and totally unknown individuals working behind the scene.

Not having any other skills except ordering around and make others’ life miserable, those people were totally out of the real social circle, living in their own world of self infatuation with themselves. They had to be heavily retrofitted in order to acquire the necessary skills to fit inside the new social life. The same thing was happening with the clericals, the ones selling religious slogans as a showbiz with god. They were even less skilled than the others, asking for a lot of social work in order to become really useful to all others. Many other such similar useless categories of people were also in need to be retrofitted. The government was patient in working with them all, as long as they were willing to change. People behind the Broadband Project knew very well how hard it is for man to remove old and selfish habits and mentalities.   

The best of them all were people with a real sense of dedication for all others like the scientists, the hard working people building America from one corner to another, the ones healing others by their skillful talent, and all the youngsters willing to dedicate their living time to different social projects, all meant to improve man’s living and keep Mother Nature happy in the same time. That was the real Broadband generation of America, and the future of all mankind. Those were the people America was counting on!

"Hi Pete! still working on that GLab project of Super Distillation?"

"Yeah Greg……….I am still!", Pete, a young and short hair man answers to Greg, the one asking, a young and well dressed fellow in his lower 20^th.

"So how is it going?"……….Greg asks again, and they both kept talking in lower voices about the project in the treed alley inside their Californian College. They were both in lunch break, trying to know each other better and to have some fun together.

A short while later Stephanie, a blond and tall good looking young lady, is approaching them on the alley asking with a soft and friendly voice………..

"Hello, you two! Are you going somewhere for lunch?"

Looking at each other they answer in tandem "Yeah, let’s go to Roses Garden".

With salads and lean cuisine in their plates, dozens or young student were sitting there at the tables, laughing at each other in that day of late summer.

"Yeah", Pete said, "we are making some encouraging progress on super distillation, and by the year end we will surely come up with a new fuel on the market."

"That’s great", Stephanie said, continuing on her own……….

"We are making some progress also with improving the Bio-genome, but we have still a long way to go". Stephanie was in the Biogenetics GLab.

"Wow, you guys are up to a good start!" Greg said.

"We are not that lucky, it looks the Anti-Gravity Project I am in has a long way to go.

"We are sharing some thoughts with the NASA Corp, but as of today, we are all at a dead end". Greg was in a MetaPhysics GLab, in charge with a very hash project that looks close to a dead end. Greg is in a special position, he knew, a security guard is there in the bushes, listening to every word he is saying.

Pete Russell was working on a product called "CarboGel", a honey like corn sugar jell made by a process of super-distillation, which pressurized turns into alcohol, and, as the experiments on cars shown, a 5 gallons tank of such gel was good enough to run a car for seven hundred  miles. The project was improving fast, and the one thousand miles mark was about to be reached. It was cheap, clean, and easy to produce. The first testing cars were already driven on the college campuses were such GLabs existed. By the year end, as Pete knew, a large scale production of such "CarboGel" will be put for sale on several car fuels stations inside the U.S. markets and even some American friendly markets abroad. The project was falling under the Blue Code rule, being free for a wide spread circulation.

As a biogenetic engineer, Stephanie Griffith was working on something which was more like a Sci-Fi movie idea. She and her GLab pears were trying to modify the human genome in order to increase man’s live span to several hundred years. Some mutations were made in this direction on rats, which have increased their life span by a multiple of three. The name of the project was “Golden Age”, but everybody was going with “Matusalem”, from Moses’ legendary multi-centennial figure. Now they were trying to apply the experiment on humans, and as was expected, the candidates were numerous. The only hurdle was the ethical aspect of the project, making some clericals vocalizing their opposition. But the government was quick in quieting them down. The project had a Yellow Code, being partially kept under wrap.

Greg Pearson was relatively new in his GLab, but he did work in MetaPhysics before getting here. The term MetaPhysics applied to the physics outside man’s normal habitat, therefore was totally out of human range. Antigravity, antimatter, plasmatic technology and nanotechnology, superparticles and infraparticles, were some of the projects his GLab and some similar in the country were working on. The anti-gravity was the major project for now. All the MetaPhysics GLabs were working on this for the time being, sharing their data with some U.S. corporation in the field. Due to its strategic importance this project was considered under the Red Code, therefore, it was totally hashed. Greg was under continuous surveillance 24 hours per day.

***

The beauty of those new projects inside those GLabs was the flexibility and the speed with which they were able to function and deliver. If one such GLab project was getting into a dead end, it was almost instantly retrofitted for some other task at hand, or moved over to other similar projects some other GLabs were working on. With this kind of new capacity at hand, new and close to each other technologies were put in place in order to serve mankind and keep Mother Nature happy in the same time.

An example in this regards were the alternative fuels, which were alternated in such a manner that no depletion was ever seen, as was the case before. Having cars able to use different kinds of fuels, those cars were able to alternate them according with the supply at hand, so that by leaving the corn fields free of crops for several years, for example, they can recuperate faster. Then some other fields were left crops free, and so on. By doing this an ecologic balance was in place at all time, letting Mother Nature to replenish from within. It was no room in such a friendly environment for speculative financial gains and market disruptions, like it happened before.

This was happening also with all other technologies, all able to replace each other when a case or another arises. All this was inspired by Mother Nature, as Her best recipe of wellbeing and survival under any circumstances. By doing all this man was learning in time that to any existing living problem unlimited numbers of solutions are waiting there in the wings to be discovered. Man had just to be able to discover them!

But in order to accomplish all this, the world of man had to be one in everyone. In short, man has to understand the cosmic truth of one-many. Mankind is just one for everyone, therefore everyone has to be an active part and co-participant to it. The separation in rich and poor, smart and dull, etc. had to disappear for mankind to survive. That’s what the Prophecy was trying to convey to man………..to become one mankind indeed!

But as always in man’s case, nobody was listening, and the world of man had become a world of selfish discontent, where some few made the rules for their content against some many discontented others. The war was everywhere: among nations, inside the nations, inside cities, inside families and the society at large.

And on top of all this Mother Nature was reclaiming her territory by giving to man devastating destructions everywhere he turned………..global warming, hurricanes, tornados, floods, earthquakes, drought, volcano eruptions, etc., were everywhere. How can man still survive in such precarious conditions was hard to imagine, many scientists already predicting man’s extinction as a very realistic and woefully close scenario.

As it looked, America was the only hope for mankind to survive!

***

But in order for America to save the world of man a change from within was necessary first to take place. That was what the Broadband Project was all about, a change from within to affect the without and reverse the course of events the Prophecy was telling to man will otherwise take place. This change inside the American social apparatus was based on what America was from its beginnings…………a "melting pot" of many living for the prosperity of all.

This was the Democratic Dream America brought into the world of man. But the dream lost its focus in time, changing into a social body based on greed, eclipse of the heart, and pretend. That was what the Broadband Project was trying to correct. Very much disregarded by almost every country in the world, except for some very few, this new democratic wave was trying to accomplish the impossible.

  The challenge was increasingly taller, as the world wide living events were showing an accelerating deterioration by day. It was a tachyionic worsening indeed..……….

~ NATO was at a brink of dismantlement, leaving to America the burden of fighting all the wars for peace and democracy, depleting its Treasury in the process. The United Europe was going with its own ideas in taking political decision – most of the time disregarding the U.S. advise to steer free from the "oil conspiracy" clan based on terror and lies.

~ The oil rich Russia and most Arab countries were actively trying to control the world with their very well orchestrated oil price conspiracy - all, without exception, having no respect for human values and universally known wisdom.

~ Most of South America Countries were in the hands of military juntas and drug lords, using their petrodollars and drug money to buy weapons from Russia, Europe and China in order to stay in power and spread terror in the neighboring countries.

~ The human population was getting out of control, living far beyond planet's means, killing all other species and polluting all around in total disregard for Mother Nature’s sanctuary.

~ The young generation all around the world was on a trend of total degeneration, due to drugs, heavy drinking, frustration and lack of appreciation from the old generation holding on money and power – having as direct result riots, kidnappings, street killings, and other many disturbing behaviors.

~ Most of the old values based on honesty, trust, honor, and courage were all replaced by deceiving lies, mistrust, theft, and cowardice, all leading to a sickening society based on corruption, separatism, and totalitarian or pretending regimes.

~ All the corporations across the world were reduced to just several giant monsters, all going for domination by the means of money and corruption. The last stroke was the domination of the food industry, were just four companies in the entire world was controlling the entire food supply of all planet – setting up prices and spreading hunger at will for their own benefit.

~ The grip the deceiving religious leaders all around the world were having on the ones brain-hacked by their fanatic doctrines was amazingly powerful, showing how easy is to manipulate man’s mind when the lack of cultivation prevails. Using their followers as worriers, those religions turned into a deadly weapon, making man to fight and kill man. War was what mankind was playing at all levels!

In spite of all this, mankind had to be saved, not by a forthcoming messiah, but from within mankind itself. The view of such a possibility was present in America, but how it will be put in practice was still to be seen. In so far the results were bleak, but a string of living events taking place in America was showing signs of a good start in a right direction. The only question was: how long it will take to turn into a long lasting reality?

All the best scientists in the world were saying the same thing all along……….”man has to go in sync with his planetary habitat if he wants to survive in the years to come. If not, he will face extinction.” The signs were too overwhelmingly present not to get noticed, and the time is now or never. All those best scientists were here in America, telling to all Americans to change their habits in order to survive.

If those changes will be done here, in America, on a small scale, the scientists said, then the entire world of man will follow, having valid proofs that there is no other way except this. But before this will happen all the evil in the world has to be first nakedly exposed in order for man to see the ugliness of it and convince him to oppose it. It was always that way in mankind evolution, many civilizations rolling and falling throughout man’s history. Mankind has to learn from its past, the scientists said, and adjust its future accordingly. This is the only art of living on this remote planet, in this far corner of the universe, they kept on saying without a trace of doubt.

"Can you change my 20 gallon CarboGel tank, please!" a young adult in a silver color Chevi-Avail is telling to the attendant at a fuel station in Sunnyvale, California, giving him a special coupon he has from his friend Pete. His name is Erick Sullivan, and his car is carrying a corn based fuel developed by Pete’s GLab at the Future Technology in Los Altos, California. Erick and Pete are good friends, sharing the same apartment in Sunnyvale. Several minutes later Erick leaves the station with a new filled fuel tank ready to last for another 4 thousands miles at 80 miles per hour average speed.

He is about to pick up Stephanie and Pete from their GLabs and go together to an annual rewarding meeting at the Fuel Unlimited Corp., in downtown Palo Alto. Stephanie is Erick’s girlfriend from one year now, sharing many good life moments together. They work both on the same project, inside the same BioGenetics GLab. This once a year rewarding meeting they were about to attend, is a special one, many governmental officials, students, Profs, and company’s employees being invited to celebrate the break through discovery and the mass production of CarboGel – a “green fuel” soon to be in production and distributed all across America.

"Hello you two! Am I late?" Erick is saying from his small convertible to Pete and Stephanie, both waiting for him in the parking lot inside the Future Technology Institute.

"You are just in time!" Stephanie answers with a smile, giving him a quick kiss.

"How are you Pete? Ready for celebration?" Erick asks his roommate and pall Pete, making the GLab fist with him.

"More ready than ever, considering the bonus I am going to get after the celebration is over"……….Pete answers giving him an eyebrows rising smile.

"I hope this will make you able to buy a new car and get rid of that junky", Erick added, knowing of how many problems Pete was having lately with his old Ford Escape.

"It will be a better car than your toy for sure"……..Pete answers with a malicious smile.

"Let’s go!" Erick said again, waiting for them to buckle up and taking a quick turn out from the parking lot into the main alley leading out of the Institute into the main street.

***

"We are here today for a celebration!"

"A celebration of a dream coming true!"

"A dream America will be free again………..free from oil dependency and all the pollution associated with it". After a short pause to take his breath, he continues………...

"Yes! America is free again indeed, thanks to the wonderful people present here and all across America, all working together as a Union of hearts and minds to preserve this wonderful country, mankind, and the beautiful planet mankind lives on".

Those were the words of Michael Greenland, the new appointed U.S. Secretary of the Environment and Homeland Preservation, a Department President Mitchell inaugurated just six months ago. Continuing on the same upbeat tone, Mr. Greenland was telling to all those present in that conference room the U.S. government is very appreciative of what they have accomplished there. The secretary was addressing to the people working for the Fuel Unlimited Corp. and Future Technology Institute, all working together in their GLabs on the CarboGel project from one year and a half now. The project was a total success, translating into a very cheap and environmental friendly fuel brought to the market in record time. Everybody in that room was very proud of what they’ve accomplished.

The CEO of Fuel Unlimited, Roger Sperry, was the next speaker congratulating in the same upbeat words all those present there. And so was the Prof of the GLab in charge with the project CarboGel at the Future Technology Institute, Charles Mondi. Shortly after the celebration, all those in charge with the project from both parties were rewarded for their successful efforts. Pete Russell was among them, and happy he was indeed, knowing now he will get rid of his old car with the award money he gets.

At about 2:30 in the afternoon the reward meeting was over, and all those there were disbursing through the exits into the parking lot. Pete, Erick and Stephanie are about to celebrate the event in their own way, meeting Greg and other GLabs friends at the Blue Paradise restaurant in down town Sunnyvale that evening.

"Pick you up at 5:45 Stephie" Erick said to Stephanie, stopping in front of her place.

“Don’t forget to pick up Melanie from SFO at 3:30 Stephie”, Pete says looking at her.

Melanie was Pete’s girlfriend, who was sharing the same apartment with Stephanie.

"OK!" Stephanie replied, waving to Erick and Pete as the car drove slowly away.

***

Many such projects were in the works in several GLabs around the country, all looking in the same direction of making America free of "oil conspiracy", and environmentally friendly. Beside the CarboGel success, some other alternative fuels were in the wings, all meant to make the internal combustion engine of all cars driven in America pollution free. And some other projects were also in the works, trying to go beyond the internal combustion engine all together, looking into propulsion means other than those based on fuels.

Inspired by Mother Nature’s unlimited talents, all those new technologies were so out of range that they had to be kept secret, for the sake of man, mankind, and the planet itself. As the Prophecy was saying…………..

"All strategic discoveries made by the effort of those working in harmony and with respect for Mother Nature should be kept in secrecy from all others, until the evil in the world is removed and the fruits of such discoveries can be safely revealed to all those deserving them. Up to that point all those discoveries will be kept under a very strict surveillance and deployed in total secrecy in strategic points of the world ready to be used against the evil when the time for such action is ripen.

A reverse psychology should be also used against all those aligned with the evil in order to blind their vision about the future events. In the end all mankind will be finally able to see the good reason staying behind all those actions and to prosper in the times to come!".............

Those were prophetic words indeed………but only later, when we were able to get the real meaning behind them. Until then just very few knew………..

For those two years all Americans were working hard to build the future of America and all mankind. The failures were plenty, but the tenacity of those working in the GLabs and all across Corporate America was undefeated. From hard work they’ve learned how to work smart, and from there they’ve learned how to patiently wait for Mother Nature to kindly reveal her secrets to man.

It was a catch up game, going from forcing Mother Nature to provide, into the new and the wise concept of letting her to provide. Many long hours of assiduous observations were consumed in those GLabs, all meant to listen to Mother Nature’s revealing whisper. Many times her whisper got lost in the noisy sound of human pride and selfishness, and many other times that whisper turned into amazing discoveries, for the delight of both parties – man’s and Mother Nature’s. It was man and Mother Nature working together!

Many wonderful discoveries were made out of this delicate whisper like the dimorods, ultra hard materials, 500 times harder than diamonds; the synthetic nano-membranes to convert light into chemical energy or artificial "molecular machines" that turn sunlight into chemical fuel; the magnetic nanocarbons, capable of making high-density memory devices used in quantum computers; the super lasting batteries made out of tritium, lasting for years; solid state micro-refrigerators, having no moving parts, and  able to maintain unbelievable low temperatures with minimum energy consumption; nanotech solar cells; hydrogen fuel cells and hydrogen storage systems; and many others.

All those discoveries were in total friendship with Mother’s Nature sanctuary from the very start, due to the fact they were inspired from within Mother Nature’s sanctuary, and not over imposed to Her from man’s selfish pride position like before. Sure, none of these magnificent discoveries were to be put in practice right away but computers models were configured to see how they can be used for man’s benefit, keeping man’s habitat undisturbed in the same time.

Due to this wise approach the American scientists were able to tell what the future will hold for one discovery or another. Many times they had to scrap technologies due to the impact they will have in the future, as the computer models have shown. As man have learned from his past, it is better not to commit at all if the possibility of harm exists, regardless how slim this possibility is, and how far in the future.  It is not fair to leave for the generations to come the burden of dealing with a bad legacy.

Harsh rules and laws had to be put in place in order to keep this delicate balance between the wellbeing of man and that of Mother Nature. Based on endless consumption without any consideration for the environment, man needs to wake up and change his habits – that was the message the Broadband Project was sending to all Americans. And because this wasn’t easy, the government was getting tough with anyone not listening – particularly the large corporations.

The world at large didn’t have the same approach, continuing to hurt Mother Nature’s sanctuary like they did from too many years now. They were some nations going in the same friendly direction America was, and the doings of those countries were kept in secrecy, for the Prophecy to be avoided. Those nations were in continuous contact with America, contributing with their efforts for the final victory against the evil present inside man.

Sharing their successes, all those nations will become in time the future generation of mankind………..a generation of friendly nature toward itself and Mother Nature as well. And when the time will come, all those nations will fight together to uproot the old habits and doings of man by the means of new habits and doings, at Prophecy’s advise.

“Hurry up Pete, we are late!” Erick was telling to his award winning roommate.

“Yeah, Yeah! I am coming!” Pete answers, giving a last touch to his hair in front of the mirror. He wanted to look good for his girlfriend, Melanie, waiting for him at Stephanie’s house. It was a month now since he saw her the last time. She was in Ireland for a GLab ideas inter-exchange. She was Stephanie’s roommate.

“Let’s go!” Pete said, slamming the door in his way out.

“We have just 5 minutes to pick up our girls, and you know it takes 10 minutes to get there”, Erick said with an upset tone.

“Calm down, we will make it on time!” Pete answers with a smile.

“Hello beautiful!” Pete said to Melanie, who was waiting with Stephanie on the bench in front of their condo complex.

“You two are late!” Stephanie said, “is everything alright”, she continued, getting in the car. Melanie was giving to Pete a long time no see kiss in the back seat of the car.

“Ready to have some fun girls!” Erick said, steering the car into the traffic.

Ten minutes later they were all in the parking lot of the Blue Paradise Restaurant, checking for the reservations Erick made three days ago. Pete’s cell just rang, and after a short while Pete was telling them:

“Greg can’t make it, some emergency came up”.

Sitting at a comfortable table, they were ready to celebrate the success all America was so cheerful about. A soft music was present in the background, to make the stay of all present there one to remember. With some appetizing wine in their glasses the atmosphere was getting warmer by the minute, in spite the A/C full blast.

“How was in Ireland, Melanie?” Erick asks Pete’s girlfriend, Melanie, a blue eyes, blond hair, young lady.

“Chilly…..” Melanie answers, suggesting she is not prone to talk more about it.

“How chilly?” Erick maliciously asks again.

“Well, just enough to give us some shivers and some clues how to continue with our project”, Melanie answers with a quick voice. Erick knew she was working with “nanotech solar cells”, a new and challenging project shared with many other GLabs throughout the world.

“Let’s raise our glasses for Pete’s project success”, Melanie said, avoiding other questions regarding her project. She was obviously in no mood to continue.

“To Pete and all GLabs America!” they all cheer at unison. Half of an hour later they were dancing in the middle of a ring shining with colorful laser light effects. It was over midnight when they exit the place with long lasting memories!

Melanie Wilson was working on “nanotech solar cells” from about 3 months now, and the month spent in Ireland was the last chance for the project to stay alive or to be busted. The computer model was showing some future toxicity of the material used, by its degradation in time. The GLab in Ireland was trying to use a different material, less exposed to degradation and more friendly toward the environment. Melanie and her peers have to work now with this new material and see what happens. She knew a hard work is waiting for her ahead. But for the time being, Pete was the only thought filling her mind. Two hours later the two in loved pairs were going in one other’s place.

“Hi Mel, is eleven o’clock, you over slept! You were obviously tired from the flight back home”, Pete said to Melanie in the morning next day.

“The breakfast is waiting for you in the kitchen”, Pete continued, looking at her as she open her eyes.

“Yeah, I was really tired………..but now I am no more!” Melanie answers, giving him a lovely smile. She walks out of bed a minute later toward the bathroom to take a shower.

Twenty minutes later she was in the kitchen giving to Pete a kiss, to sit at the table in front of him after. She starts eating looking at Pete reading the news on his laptop. 

“People are very excited about the “CarboGel” and its “clean burning”, Pete uttered.

“The “oil conspiracy” is not so pleased about it, I bet on that”, Melanie whispers with her mouth half full.

“Yeah, they are pretty worried about it…………and they should be, considering how much pollution they bring in the world”, Pete angrily answered.

“Do we have some plans for today?” Melanie asks to change the subject.

“Yeah, what about a movie at the Movie Palace and some hiking in Saratoga hills later on. I hope your car is in better shape than mine”, Pete said with a comic smile

“You bet it is!” Melanie answers, giving him a kiss and going to dress herself.

They were about to leave the building when Pete’s cell rang………..

“It’s Greg”, Pete whispers looking at Melanie…………”Yeah!...........let ask Melanie!”

“He wants to meet him and Cecile some place and do something together”, he tells to Melanie, holding the phone away from his head.

“That’s fine with me!” Melanie answers, looking at Pete’s face.

“O.K. we will see you at the Movie Palace in Saratoga by the entrance”, Pete answers to Greg on the cell. One minute later they jump in Melanie’s Chevy Crystal, driving away from the parking lot. The four door car was working exclusively on alcohol.

“I see Greg and Cecile”, Pete tells to Melanie ten minutes later, pointing with his hand toward the entrance and driving the car to an empty parking spot on theater’s grounds.

“Hello Pete, Hello Melanie! Nice to see you guys!” Greg just said, shaking hands with both.

“You know Cecile!” Greg continues, introducing Cecile, a slim, black shiny hair Asian girl, with a wonderful smile to Melanie. Pete knew her from before; she was in the same GLab with Stephanie, working on the same compressed genome project.

Short while after they all enter the theater for “The Alien identity” movie.

Two hours later all four were by the entrance of the Castle Rock Park in Saratoga, ready for hiking on the hills of that beautiful place. It was a good exercise for them, considering the long hours they were putting lately in their GLabs.

“Congratulations for the award and the success of your CarboGel project”, Greg said to Pete when they were about to take the trail up.

“Thanks, Greg. I can finally get rid of my junky car now”, Pete answers with a smile.

The girls were couple of feet behind, talking and walking at a slower pace. 

“Listen, I apologize for yesterday, but Cecile didn’t feel good, I have to stay with her and take care of her at home”.

“Never mind that! Is she feeling alright now?” Pete asks with concern.

“Yeah, she is fine now. I think it was just a light flu”, Greg answers.

After a while Pete turn to Greg to ask him…………

“It looks you don’t have much success with your project. What is going on, are you at a dead end?” Pete asks, knowing of Greg’s stalemate with his Anti-gravity project.

“Not exactly, but we need to clear up some delicate issues before we can say for sure what we are getting into. We are talking here about new frontiers, and when you get at those levels, you better watch out. Nobody is able to know the consequences for sure. And you know how it is, nothing more that I can say about it!”

“I got the drift Greg!” Pete answers with a twinkle.

They continue walking on the trail at a moderate pace, filling their lungs with the fresh air coming from the old and tall sequoia trees surrounding them there. Cecile and Melanie catch up with them soon, trying to keep up with their pace………...Three hours later they were back at their cars, shaking hands and making plans for their lunch tomorrow, when they will meet again at the Institute.
