Neville falls off the earth because the pace is just too fast and he can't keep up any longer.While wandering through the asteroid field he meets a bunch of people who have also fallen (or jumped) off the Earth. He meets people who worship kitchen appliances, people who celebrate non-stop with no accounting for the time, season or date, people that are involved in a perpetual cycle race and a young woman who tends a garden that needs perpetual watering.The last personage, Helen, is also an astrophysicist who has determined that the Earth is speeding up and will soon break it's centrifugal bonds and smash through the asteroid field, leaving destruction in it's wake.Neville has to do something, but how to motivate the people inhabiting the asteroid field?A giant net, structurally reinforced streamers and pedal power generators.A short, fun satirical story of one man's ingenuity and his ability to bring people together for a common cause... to slow the world down.
