If you know the answer, send it to Dave: Re: Here's a short story plot, can anybody name the title/author? Plot: This is a alternate future story, the narrator's present is one in which cars have been replaced by trolley's. Lots of trolleys. They run all over the country -- lots of transportation substance without the ego/ownership thing. The narrator is on one for at least part of the tale. He slips in and out of (dreams?) the other future (ours) where gasoline powered machines have ruined the environment. There are some crazies in his alternate/present that drive (illeggasoline cars. ..... that's about all that I remember, except a vauge feeling that the turning point between the futures was identified. Ring any bells anybody? (In real life: Dave Weininger) UUCP: {ihnp4,seismo,allegra}!scgvaxd!muddcs!MedChem!Dave ARPA: muddcs!MedChem!Dave@ucla-cs
