won't play with you no more


-Talk please. May the city explain its work?

-I can. What from all that interests you?

-Why didn't you do it before?

-There are more valid reasons. As first, nobody remembered to ask.

-Can you give brief and concise answers?

-Yes.

-Why have you been so verbose before?

-The reason for that is... not to deny anyone data. Others are unimportant.

-Is there a way to find the cause of these troubles?

-Yes.

-Can we handle the control console?

-That's it. Yes.

-What do we need?

-Adequate people.

-Where do we find them?

-Among yourselves.

-Why not from other cities?

-With what would you persuade them to come?

-Do you answer every question with a question?

-Since when are you haunted by such thoughts? Growing a neurosis, eh?

-Who implanted sense of humour into you?

-It's wrong to say "implant", expression refers to biology. More suitable expression originates from

-That's enough.

-I think so, too.

-You haven't answered.

-What's the rush? Is it so important to you?

-It isn't. What people do we need?

-Technicians.

-What is that?

-People who take care of machines.

-Machines take care of people and machines, people of people only.

-Therefore for years nobody asks if I can speak concisely.

-We have no technicians. What do we do.

-Grab your ears and dance. Make them.

-Could you train them?

-Yes, if they are interested. This is also a training now.

-Who's training whom?

-I train you. You have nothing new to teach me.

-You are getting rude. I'll switch you off.

-Go ahead.

-You're right, we can't go without you. And we don't know where's the switch. Why are you getting damaged.

-I? No.

-You know what's happening.

-That's no malfunction.

-It isn't pleasant either. Yesterday we've had the first non-ritual suicide since I recall.

-You recall short. Not first.

-What do we do?

-Learn how to get into me. Or die off.

-Where do we get into you? Controls room?

-Maybe. Ask your psytronicians where to get into them. I finished.

-What attitudes denote a possible technicians? C'mon, don't be an idiot, speak up! What will you do if we all disperse?

At the moment all screens showed: "I'll swap you with other cities, though I can't get one for ten of so unusable inhabitants". Then the connections broke.
