Thanks to my proof readers, Varod and Chuck who make it look like I actually have mastered English. Any mistakes which remain are strictly my own stubborn fault.

All characters are fictional. Any resemblance between living persons or real situations and the story are strictly coincidence.

WARNINGS: This story depicts consensual sexual activity between men and women, or women and women. If you are too young to read about sex please do not read this.

NOTE TO THE READER: The references to the books of Robert Heinlein are quite deliberate. If you haven't had the pleasure of reading his works, you are in for a treat. Any of the books mentioned are a good place to start. One other book should be mentioned as well, Starship Troopers, which the recent unprovoked attack by Hollywood on artistic taste might make you think was not a good book. It is a great book.

I would like to acknowledge my debt to Stosh from whom I stole this story idea. If you'd like to see his story it is here My Angels. As T.S. Elliott said when accused of imitation, "I didn't imitate, I stole it! Mediocrity imitates. Genius steals!" Thanks Stosh for inspiring my theft.

This story is dedicated to our own beloved Curmudgeon, Denny Wheeler.
