Mercury Revisited – Part I

Author’s Note: As you all know, the devastation wrought by hurricane Katrina led to analyses from many different perspectives that continue to this day. Almost from day one, the perspective that has continued to occur to me most often is how complicated life can become when we lose appreciation and respect for the basic laws of nature. What follows is my allegory, with some help from one of the great storytellers of all time, H.G. Wells, on what can happen to either humans or aliens, when due respect and consideration is not given to the great power of living in accordance with nature’s designs.
