building, to an office where Senator Mark Hunt was waiting, seated in a leather chair behind a large desk. As they entered, the senator spoke. “Ah, young Mr. Wells, I presume.”
    â€œYes,” Jeff replied. He had read much about Senator Hunt in the newspapers over the last several months, as had everyone in the country. Most of the media proclaimed him to be the answer to the nation’s troubles.
    With the economy in its thirtieth month of recession and more than twenty million Americans unemployed, a change of administration was certain, and the front-runners were Senator Hunt and Governor Crow. According to the papers President Kilborne still had a chance, but only if the economy took an unexpected turn. Personally, Jeff liked Kilborne. He had a lot of good ideas, but he was saddled with an economy so burdened by debt that many predicted another five years of recession before it would begin to recover.
    Jeff was greeted with a warm smile as Senator Hunt motioned for him to sit down in the chair nearest his desk. Cal Rutland took a chair across the room, as if to become a spectator.
    â€œI assume you know who I am, Jeff?”
    â€œYes, sir,” Jeff said honestly, relaxing a bit as he felt the personal warmth of Hunt’s smile and courtesy.
    â€œI won’t try to snow you, Jeff . . . uh, may I call you Jeff?”
    â€œYes, of course.”
    â€œGood! I understand you’re some kind of computer whiz. Is that right, Jeff?”
    â€œWell, I don’t know about that, Senator Hunt,” Jeff said hesitantly.
    â€œPlease. Call me Mark. And don’t be so humble. I like men who are the best at what they do. If I’m going to lead this country out of the mess it’s in, I’m going to need men who are confident of their own abilities.” He glanced across the room at his aide as he added, “Cal here thinks you’re the best at what you do. Or you’re going to be.”
    Cal twisted a bit in his chair but remained silent.
    â€œI need your help, Jeff,”Hunt continued. “When I’m elected president, we’re going to need to bring this nation’s economic system out of the dark ages, and it will take all of us working together to do it. We can no longer hide our heads in the sand.”
    â€œBut Senator—uh, Mark, I don’t know anything about economics. Surely you have advisers who . . .”
    Hunt didn’t let him finish. “I have plenty of people who understand how economics used to work, Jeff. We don’t need those old-fashioned ideas anymore. We must either become innovators or become a third-rate power. My administration will have the best minds working on the economic models. What I will need most is that computer brain of yours. Cal tells me you stumped the boys at Livermore.”
    â€œWell, I don’t know, sir. They didn’t want to believe what my program predicted.”
    â€œIdiots, Jeff. You remember that. They are idiots! It’s the same mentality that is trying to hold this country back. I want you to learn all there is to know about how the world banking system operates. Then I want you to design a computer system that will track every electronic financial transaction in the world.”
    Jeff wasn’t sure he had heard correctly.“Track every transaction? Why that would take a computer larger than . . .”
    Hunt interrupted to say, “I don’t care what it takes, Jeff. We have the same kind of idiots working at the World Bank that you saw at Livermore. Dr. Eison and a few enlightened souls will cooperate. Your job will be to galvanize them into a working team, and Cal will handle the others,” he said, glancing across the room at Rutland.
    â€œYou see, Jeff, everyone we have contacted so far says that it would take a computer that doesn’t exist yet to do what I want. But let’s not worry about that now. I want you to design a program that will make the Data-Net work
