“You’re kidding.”
“No. Really. They said those pictures of earth from satellites and

you go to Antarctica, you can find where the earth ends and I guess
you can fall off into space or something.” [to top of second

“That’s ridiculous,” said Doc.
“You ever been to Antarctica, Doc?”
“No.”
“Me neither. Always sounded too dang cold a place to have much fun
there. But them flat earth folks just had to go.”
“And if they fall off,” asked Herb. “What then?”
“Then I think I’ll order breakfast,” Steve grinned.
