While on a backpacking trip in Yosemite National Park, I met a distinguished gentleman who said that he was a recuiter for a foundation that attempted to solve problems in various places. After inquiring about my background, the gentleman said that his employers sometimes provided opportunities for someone with my experience. Would I be interested? I replied, "yes, of course" and my visitor departed saying that his foundation may get in touch. When I awoke the next morning, I was bewildered and frightened to find myself on a completely different planet. At first, I thought I was dreaming, but the strange plants and animals could not have existed anywhere on Earth. The ensuing adventure involved the discovery of a primitive Mesozoic world, but one that also had two species of sentient creatures, one mammalian and the other reptilian. The tasks of learning new languages, new cultures, and attempting to introduce some civilizing influence were almost overwhelming but progress was made. It was an exciting experience. Had you been in my place, would you have done the same things?
