But the real trouble didn't get underway until the Stones headed for the asteroid belt to take up a mining proposition they, somehow, couldn't refuse...

A szindikátusnak dolgoztam. Ha úgy vesszük, hacker voltam. Nem gondolatolvasó, inkább elmeradar, aki az éterre hangolódva fogta annak minden rezdülését. Olyasmit is érzékeltem, ami nem a közvetlen közelemben történt: rögtön tudtam, ha kint, az utcán végigsétált egy látó, és megéreztem, amikor Covent Gardenben gyülekezni kezdtek a lelkek. Amint rákapcsoltak a létfenntartó gépekre, a Seven Dials egy mérföldes körzetében bármit kiszagoltam az éterben. Ha bárkinek kedve támadt a I-4 szennyesében turkálni, Jaxon záros határidőn belül már ugrasztott is. Meggyőződése szerint ennél sokkal többre is képes lehettem volna, de Nick minden kísérletezést megtiltott. Fogalmunk sem volt, milyen következményei lennének rám nézve.

Brian Gage - The Saddest Little Robot
Snoot is a Drudgebot, and a confused one at that. He can’t figure out why the Halobots, who run Dome City, get some much extra light (all robots need light to survive). He thinks so much about this he gets easily distracted and is consequently the least productive of all robots. He is also oddly shaped and the others make fun of him. Curious about what exists in the awful darkness outside the Dome, he ventures forth and discovers that all it not as it seems. Snoot vows to restore equality to Dome City. With guile, cunning, and good old-fashioned courage, Snoot, aided by some special friends, returns to Dome City to free the Drudgebots.
In both story and illustration, The Saddest Little Robot evokes and utilizes the styles of sci-fi books and films, manga, movie posters, comics and animated films. It encourages readers to look beyond what lies on the surface, to discover for themselves that things are not always as they seem; most important of all it shows them that they are strong enough to decide to do something about it. As Snoot does. And the saddest little robot becomes very happy indeed.
