| Summary |
|---|
| A rare alternate-time-track story from Niven, and a delightful homage to one of SF's grand masters. Infamous senator William Proxmire attempts to hobble the "fanatics" in the space industry by going back in time to alter the lifestyle of a seasick young sailor named Robert Heinlein. But there's no way he could have predicted the results! |
