St. Remedius Medical College: “Fun Fun Fun Under The Antarctic Sun”

The Mystery and Dangers of Elyard-Amos Island (Who was St. Remedius? And why is a medical college named after him?) While examples of past and future life otherwise extinct are relatively common thanks to quantum pockets and chronal invasions, true “lost worlds” full of animal, plant, and fungus life extinct elsewhere run into a basic problem: the persistence of Earth life to pass beyond expected boundaries.

St. Remedius Medical College: “Time Before Time Travel”

Trials and Tribulations of Chrononauts New and Established (Who was St. Remedius? And why is a medical college named after him?) One of the great assumptions about time travel is that the process of developing a working system is difficult and/or dangerous.

While not actually freezing over,…

St. Remedius Medical College: “The Trinity River Ghost Bridge”

Bridges, Like Doorways, Go Both Ways (Who was St. Remedius? And why is a medical college named after him?) Because of the topology of Texas in general and of Dallas in particular, this is not a city prone to fog. Steady and persistent south winds that suck the moisture out of everything they touch are only intermittently broken with storms or north fronts, and Dallas will never be compared in the same deliberation…

St. Remedius Medical College: “The Zoetropes Rise”

A Zoetrope contemplating her next experiment.

Law Versus Chaos, Good Versus Evil, And Those Who Thrive in Between (Who was St. Remedius? And why is a medical college named after him?) Most looking at the metaphysical poles of Law versus Chaos, often but not always seasoned with Good versus Evil, only focus on the poles and never look at the spaces between.
