This story had a strange origin. A book on Chaos Theory talked about a scientist in the Manhattan Project who decided to live a 25 hour day. He moved in and out of the cloistered Manhattan Project society, on a 24 day cycle, like the phases of the moon. I was fascinated and tried to write a story in which the earth's rotation slowed leaving some people unable to adapt. The story refused to gel. Instead I was left with a story about the end of the world. More accurately, it is a trilogy of short stories with an Epilogue. Enjoy.
