THE MORE THINKING BEINGS ADVANCE, THE BIGGER THEIR IDEAS GET, AND THE MORE WAYS THEY COME UP WITH TO SHARE THEM WITH EACH OTHER! MOVIES AND PHOTOGRAPHS, CONVERSATIONS OVER HUGE DISTANCES HAPPENING IN AN INSTANT THROUGH THE TELEGRAM AND THE TELEPHONE AND THE FIBER OPTIC CABLE-
[Bill's gestures are getting more enthusiastic, and the skin of his adopted form is gently pitching to a deep, velvety black. As he speaks, glittering stars appear inside his silhouette one by one, as if seen from an incredible distance.]
