Example text
But the Lensman, studying him narrowly—and, if the truth must be known, using his Lens as well—was not sure, and was well content. 'Not bad for an old man, Phil. I could whip a wildcat, and spot him one bite and two scratches. But what I came in here for, as you may have suspected, is—where do I go from here? Spica or Rigel or Canopus? ' 'Rigel's is probably the worst in property damage and urgency. Before we decide, though, I wish you'd take a good look at this data from Dekanore III. ' 'Huh? ' Cloud was surprised.

' 'Absolutely—or at least, as sure as we can be of anything that hasn't happened yet. But your guardian angel here is eyeing her clock a bit pointedly, so I'd better do a flit before she tosses me out on my ear. ' Thus 'Storm' Cloud, nucleonicist, became the most narrowly-specialized specialist in the long annals of science; became 'Storm' Cloud, the Vortex Blaster.
