I was falling through space, in­ creasing in speed the farther I went. Blue, red, green and yellow shot by me, bathing me as I continued to fall. Visions of my past, both pleas­ ant and nightmarish, were flash­ ing by, telling the entire story of, my life, leaving out not a single detail of the faces and the places I've seen and been. Wondering if I was dying, and • cursing the Yukon Jack, I was still falling. It felt as if my mind had left my body and was travel­ ling through space, on a journey that would take man thousands of millenia.

It felt as though I were in some sort of tunnel. When it seemed as though I was never going to stop, I began to slow down. I could see a light shin­ ing ahead. Drawing closer to it, I realized I was coming upon a window. I covered my eyes; the window shattered as I came crashing through it, landing with a thud against a padded surface. I checked myself over. I couldn't find a single scratch or cut. Startled, I looked up to discover the window was not broken. To further complicate the matter, I realized I was in a padded cell. It was all white, with the only light coming from the window a- bove. There seemed to be no door, no way out. Turning around I was astonished to see Randy, a grade school friend whom I had not seen in years. It was horrorifying; he was all white, a difficult task for a black man. His eyes were staring right at me, yet he couldn't see me. He sat there swaying back and forth, shivering like he was freez­ ing to death. "Randy, my God, what's, wrong?" I cried. "Where are we?" "Hi, hello," he said. "I've just been programmed. I feel fine, I know my entire future." "Programmed? Future?- Ran­ dy, what are you saying? What does it mean?" I said.
