"He's crazy" Jones blurted out. Silnius sighed, looked out the window, rested his forehead against it, looked down at the city. It was raining again, and the glass was cold.
"The jump freighters are not enough? He knows how big it would have to be, right? How much energy that would take? I mean, the cooling alone. We have the little ones sure, people sized. That is all cute, but that is not this. It's not just the size of the frame. Whatever, I can make you a frame that big. No problem. It's the mass. All those containers, all the time, every day. Millions of kilos per month. It's not even exponential, you know, when we make the frames bigger. It's worse. Eight dimensions. We're talking about both ends of the mass driver, all of it, the energy pumps. You'd need a supercomputer to run it. What if something went wrong? It would vaporize the entire city, further. All you would see is bedrock. And it'd probably be on fire, and bedrock does not even burn, Silnius. It does not burn, but it would if that thing went off. You told him all this?" Jones continued.
The graviton clock in the corner of the engineering studio was thrumming the ticks of the universe, its heartbeat, 20hz. Silnius let it count out a hundred beats before he replied carefully, "I did".
"And then the freight terminal on the other side. You know I hate that place, right. It's downright unfriendly. We'd have the containers coming in, we'd have to keep the place safe. How do we keep the place safe, Jones. It's fundamentally unsafe. There is literally nothing safe about it. He remembers what happened to Sabrowsky out there. You told him. What did he say?"
"He said 'Yes.'"
