Chance Encounter

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 6473

Stacy had had almost nothing to eat since finding herself in the subway train that morning, so having a meal was her top priority. She took the book with her to look at whilst she ate. She had already read the first few chapters during the journey from New Your to Albuquerque. She didn't seem to have, or at any rate to remember, any specialised knowledge of radio-astronomy. However the book was aimed at the general reader, and the intrinsic interest of the subject, the clarity of the writing and the enthusiasm of the author combined to make it a fascinating read.

The steak wasn't bad, and Stacty was dividing her attention fairly equally between it and the book when a woman's voice caused her to look up. The voice said:

  1. "I hope you're enjoying my book. Maybe one of these days I'll get some royalties."
  2. "Back in Socorro, Stacy? I was afraid we'd lost you to New York for good."
  3. "Wow! Fancy meeting you here. You're my hero - or do I mean 'heroine'?"
  4. "This is a stick-up!"
