The Garden of Eden
. . . at some point something must
have come from nothing . . .
Sophie Amundsen was on her way home from school. She had walked the
first part of the way with Joanna. They had been discussing robots.
Joanna thought the human brain was like an advanced computer.
Sophie was not certain she agreed. Surely a person was more than a
piece of hardware?
When they got to the supermarket they went their separate ways.
Sophie lived on the outskirts of a sprawling suburb and had almost
twice as far to go to school as Joanna.
