“Jefferson estaba convencido de que aquellos eran iguales. En 1796 recibió un envío, supuestamente de huesos de mamut, procedente del condado de Greenbriar, en Virginia; pero una enorme garra le alertó de inmediato de que se trataba de otra cosa, posiblemente de una especie de león inmensa.

“     Illicit flight Alfa Bravo Charlie quickly reached a predetermined altitude and stopped dead. The passengers on board screamed the way people do on fairground rides. The shuttle hesitated momentarily and then shot forward accelerating rapidly to reach a blistering 145,222 miles per hour. They were in a Mach 22 situation. The cries from on-board could not be heard from the ground. Neither did anyone in the great metropolis of Llar witness the bright blue vapour trail the craft left behind in its wake. It was after all overcast and raining heavily.”
