This is a very believable version of our future and Ulissa is a compelling character. When Eduardo fell in to his predicament I was reminded of Tom Godwin' s story, "The Cold Equation" (I thought I has heard that story read on Escape pod but I could not find it in the archive) and I remembered hearing that Godwin had rewritten the ending so that the story would have the ending his editor wanted. The resolution of Eduardo's of problem was surprising to me. I would be interested to know a little about the author's process for this story.
