Have you ever stopped to imagine...

How different things would be today if some prankster had delivered a timely little kick to the emergency stop button of the escalator in Dump Tower during that cursed moment when the Groper and its Escort descended to make The Announcement ?

They’d either have been stuck there, or would have to step down - annoyed and frustrated - while onlookers and Press watched in fascination their exhibition of navigating the escalator’s difficult steps in agonizing slowness.

The Earth might even still have a chance at a future.

Instead, we’ve got the grim nightmare of today.
