I would say that all the themes of the book are there from the beginning, including the individual, the social, magic, religion, and also science,

The reason the lights shimmers and changes in iridescence is that tiny holes that are exactly the wavelength of light being reflected, ... right now the size of chips is as small as it can be using lenses. The trouble is, as you go to higher wavelengths, the glass absorbs the light. The solution is to use mirrors, which will reflect most wavelengths until you get up into x-rays.

It's just the beginning.

It was nice at the beginning because it was our little secret. Now we've got a bull's-eye on our back. It will be interesting to see how the girls respond to it.

We are beginning to understand how important (foul shooting) is in a game. We had chances to cut into the lead and we missed foul shots. They started to bring the ball inside to get to the line.

It's not as strong as we had hoped for at the beginning of the session, of course.
