What would you do in the same circumstances?  That is really the question.  I think it gives a viable scenario for a unique silo situation.  Limited resources, limited population (think china) Could a society with such restrictions afford to keep someone like Daniel.I was impressed that someone finally handled the very tough question that finally came up.I have often wondered about the finer points of population control and how we as a society that doesn't seem to limit in any way other than poverty how many children you can have, would deal with population control and euthanasia of the less than perfect infants.My only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is the length and the development of the characters in such a short story left them a bit 2D.I would have liked it to be about twice the length to deal with the material introduced.  Or make it a snapshot short story and cut the material in half that was introduced.I love love love the material that you are working with here.  Fantastic! (Full disclosure- I got a preview copy to review, good or bad)
