Title: YASID - Escape Pod episode
Post by: stePH on August 14, 2015, 04:30:42 PM

Bob Novella on Facebook mentioned a story about a person who "blew up an entire solar system filled with populated worlds. His punishment was to live the entire life of each of the billions of people he killed one after the other."

I asked him for author and title; he couldn't remember but said it was an Escape Pod episode. Anybody recognize/remember it?

Wasn't that out of the flash fiction contest?

Thanks. Somebody on Teh Phizbuk also came up with that later the same day or the next.

I'll have to dig back into the archives to get that one; my "RSS Radio" app won't go back that far (though it did get me "Flowers for Algernon" which is sitting on my phone now)
