Amazing! ::appl::

I've read several hundred books and at least a dozen anthologies - this definitely belongs in the ranks!

Thanks, Outre!  You know, after rereading it, I think I could improve it a bit.  Maybe streamline it, but I still like the basic plot.  I've read a ton of anthologies too, and to the best of my knowledge, this plot is original.  There have been stories of androids, of course, and energy beings too.  But I don't think I've even seen a story that puts them both together with a plausible progression.

have you read "Life and Death in the Miller House?"  I don't think it's my best work, but most people say they like it the best.

::wiseman:: Britt sez: "Nor shall I make the Decision and give up the flesh!  Them new-fangled android bodies are for the birds, Kids.  I shall accept my fate, thank you, and allow these old bones to moulder in a grave, my soul passing into the Great Beyond!  How I long for Earth before the Diaspora!  You may have your strong mechanical bodies, but as for me, give me decomposition into the soil of my birth."



::thumbs:: Awesome, Saint! ::thumbs::

I was a fan of Science Fiction anthologies in childhood.  Your story reminds me of those many short stories which succinctly brought the implications of technology home.

Bravo!
