Adventure Into Fear

Welcome to Adventure into Fear.

Welcome to Fear. Welcome to Adventure Into Fear.

This is your host, Tony Roberts, to take you on a personally conducted tour

into the world of the strange, the mysterious, the uncanny, and the unknown.

As you hear the story, I call the big brain.

My story begins in one of the manufacturing plants of the worldwide business machines corporation.

In a wing of the plant is housed the huge laboratories of the company, where newly designed and experimental calculating machines are built and tested.

It is evening, and the vast laboratory with its long rows of intricate looking

machines is deserted, except for a young university professor, Lester DeWitt. Tall,

lanky and in his early 30s, DeWitt stands before a massive machine that dwarfs all others

in the laboratory. Swiftly, efficiently, he presses tabulating keys on the control board, oblivious of all else.

3.521 to the 8th digit, 7.4.3 to the third digit, 7.5.6 to the fourth digit.

And 9.3 to the 4th digit.

9.3 to the 5th digit.

174.325, the 6th digit.

Hey, that you? Professor DeWitt?

Yeah, I'm at the big brain.
