They arrive in an idyllic landscape, until they encounter a major roadblock to survival that neither has ever encountered before.The Right to Bear Arms - A physics professor is so distraught at his son's death by a mentally deranged man carrying an automatic weapon, that he devises an incredible plan that he hopes will change history forever.Raymond The Automatic House – In a post-apocalyptic future a man finds an intact automatic house in the woods.Empathy – A man with psychic and empathetic powers decides that the fragile and topsy-turvy state of the union is about to collapse, so he devises a plan to fix it.
