Pshaw! Trifling details.

(Focusing on the non-obvious problems might make for a more interesting and/or fantastical story.)

Ah, a energy force field it is then.

[WJW → lukan]

[dredmorbius → WJW]

Turtles all the way down.

Teenage, mutant, ninja, or otherwise.

[AbstractH24 → WJW]

[wtetzner → lukan]

And gravity.
