And he's probably not going to.  He's kind of like a prototype 
Powernaut, though by now he's kind of like 1950s Captain America.  He's 
taking a long lonely walk in Magic Land now.

Well, Wyatt Ferguson didn't successfully start a fight with Ellipsis. 
If he had, that fight would probably have lasted two seconds and ended 
with a plume of smoke.  Perhaps I could write a story supplement which 
explains why Ellipsis doesn't just zorch everyone he finds annoying.

In another sense, I published this story at a time when I didn't feel 
the need to resolve every conflict which arose by the end of a story. 
There's a bit more resolution in a story I published the next year: 
Picture the Future, which introduced Earth 2011.
