Removal of recent speculative natter, incidentally, the "relies on adult consciousness" thing is Word of God, as stated in the text.


*** Maybe "child" means young enough not to be "fixed" in one's body image, ie up to about a young toddler?

* SchizoTech: Justified, as Endtown has to make do with whatever works. Candlestick phones make sense in a land of many species; there's no telling how far apart their mouths and ears will be. And those crank-powered ray guns never run out of ammunition (as long as your arm holds out).
** Also remember this is a different world with different technology development and aesthetics.
