It is less than 500 years since an entire half of the world was discovered.

It is less than 200 years since the discovery of the last continent.

The sciences of chemistry and physics go back scarce one century.

The science of aviation goes back 40 years. The science of

When they are discovered, they may shock us to the bone.

I agree with that opening reading. The most startling things are unknown to us.

That is in fact the prerequisite for being startling is for it to be unknown if it's

discovered a lot in a short amount of time enough to make us us cocky, yet there is so much more.

What are we discovering today?

We are discovering Donald A. Wallheim's mimic.

It's a very short story that we're going to cover here on the H.P. Lovecraft Lofcraft, literary podcast.

I'm Chad Fyfer.

And I'm Chris Laki.

And whose voice was that we just heard reading?

Our reader is Greg Johnson, an old favorite.

I say old, but Greg actually just turned 17 years old.

What?

Yeah, yeah, he's very young.
