e problem. Mr. Atkins and his syndicate hadn't
send us back for purely altruistic reasons; they learned that Rog's
daughter Ann would marry a fellow (not one of us) named Jack Grundy and
that they'd have a son named Bilbo, who would invent the Grundy
Projector. Our assignment was to keep that from happening.

their son would have a good, plain American name. It's William Grundy.

But today my younger boy told me their kindergarten teacher calls
William "Billy Boy."

And one little girl can't pronounce it. She calls him Bilbo.
