"There was no one to pay me for these tasks. No direct bargaining could be undertaken. I saw that the Universe operated regeneratively on an indirect, complex circuitry of intersupport.
“All biological life on Earth is sustained exclusively by star (Sun) radiation. The radiation is vegetation-impounded by photosynthetic chemistry, which proliferates hydrocarbon molecules.”
