 What is one thing Glmpauszn didn't struggle with when acclimating to Earth?
A Gleeb for Earth By CHARLES SHAFHAUSER Illustrated by EMSH In two days I, Glmpauszn, will be born. I have attuned myself to a fetus within the body of a not-woman in the not-world. As soon as my stasis was achieved, I tried to contact you, but got no response. My wave went out to yours and found it, barely pulsing and surrounded with an impregnable chimera. Quickly, from the not-world vibrations about you, I learned the not-knowledge of your location. I, Glmpauszn, come equipped with powers evolved from your fragmentary reports before you ceased to vibrate to us and with a vast treasury of facts from indirect sources. I must leave off now because the not-child is about to be born. When it is alone in the room, it will be spirited away and I will spring from the pod on the gateway into its crib and will be its exact vibrational likeness. This is the only way I could arrive in the room where the gateway lies without arousing suspicion. I will grow up as the not-child in order that I might destroy the not-people completely. All is well, only they shot this information file into my matrix too fast. There is no way of describing to you in not-language what I had to go through during the first moments of my birth. My not-mother (Gezsltrysk!) I learned the following day that the opposite component of my not-mother, my not-father, had been away riding on some conveyance during my birth. He was out on ... what did they call it? He did not arrive till three days after I was born. My not-father entered while I was standing by the crib examining a syringe the doctor had left behind. This was the first use I had made of the so-called vocal cords that are now part of my extended matrix. They apprehended him on the stairs and I heard him babble something about my being a monster and no child of his. My not-mother appeared at the doorway and instead of being pleased at the progress of my growth, she fell down heavily. He wanted to go on this expedition himself and it's his nature never to flatter anyone. From now on I will refer to not-people simply as people, dropping the qualifying preface except where comparisons must be made between this alleged world and our own.
