In the near future, there will be a network of parking garage type buildings in all of the major cities of the world containing a matter transfer apparatus that can quickly move vehicles, and their contents, to any selected worldwide outlet and back again.

All this being handled by the workings of Commuter Central, a computer controlled mass transfer unit where ordinary people can commute from one side of the country to the other; or vacation in Hawaii or a Greek villa by automobile.

But! What if?

As all of the workings of the Commuter Central are run by computers, what would happen if there was a computer glitch, or worse yet, a computer virus?

Pay the toll to arrive in Los Angeles and end up in Athens, Greece. Or, worse yet, leave Boston and end up in Tucson, Arizona, 1859!

Read on.
