Tony Morello invented Mankind’s greatest boon. In a process that bordered on magic but followed all the laws of physics, he created an indestructible material called permano. Nothing affected it. It was impervious to wind, rain, acids, fire. In no time, auto makers were using it to make vehicles that survived accidents, even if their occupants didn’t. Engineers used it for bridges that could never collapse and roads that lasted forever. Construction companies used it for houses that never needed repairs. The euphoria was short-lived. Waste permano piled up in mountains that would last forever. Angry environmentalists lynched Tony Morello.
