re: #71 Eclectic Cyborg

There was a novel published by Morgan Robertson in 1898 called “Futility”, also known as “The Wreck of the Titan.”

It was about a large ocean liner (the Titan) that strikes an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sinks on its maiden voyage. Robertson is considered by some to be a prognosticator of the Titanic disaster but he had a deep knowledge of maritime history and current customs and knew an incident like that which befell Titanic happening was a matter of when, not if.

Maybe there’s some kind of connection between that story and this new show.

great book
