I enjoyed this couple. They remind me of the description of the self contained couple on the plane in Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle. I don’t remember anything more because I read that so long ago. But at the time it impressed me enough to stick in the brain for 50 ish years. My brain is not as reliable as it used to be but I thought I saw a comment from you on the STSC Substack recently with questions. Of course I couldn’t find it again. I can offer up some answers to the questions I remember or imagine you asked if they remain unanswered. I am a member and supporter. Cheers!
Hi Jeanne and many thanks for reading. I've read some Vonnegut, but a long time ago. Don't think I read Cat's Cradle, but who knows? I can't remember that far back....I'd have to dig it out and see if it rings a bell...
Yes, I did leave a comment on STSC a while back. It was on The Code article. I haven't received a response yet.
Beautiful - when two really is just one. I suppose we all just wish to find ourself in the other. For some, maybe home is really a solitary place. I get the impression that some really don't want to be disturbed from it. Everything is as it should be.
Hi Mitchell, I appreciate your feedback. Glad you liked it. I guess that particular sentiment has been with me for a while - and Cynthia pried it out of me :) Many thanks for checking it out! And keep the puzzle fires burning.

Yes, I agree that, as you say, home may be a solitary place. Many thanks for checking this one out. You have dug into the archives, for sure!
