Anyone who has had a headache can relate to the pain the author conjures up with PULSING.  The reader might just have one of his own after reading this short story. It is short - only 20 KB.  It won't take long to finish - less than 5 minutes.  Take your aspirin now.There are lots of questions that never get answered - even in the special laboratory that just happened to be directly above the children's cafeteria somewhere?  We never find out what the head ache is all about.  We don't know how it relates to the carnage.  We don't know how or why it relates to the children.  Maybe the head throbbing pulse originated at the chemical plant but maybe it is from something else.  Maybe the children know and maybe they don't. Maybe you will have a headache when you read this too.There are just too many cryptic suggestions and esoteric implications.  I have no idea what this story was supposed to tell me other than Kep had a nasty, unexplained, pulsing head pain. Where's the aspirin?
