[edit] Plot introduction
Plot elements include submersion of the world caused by melting polar ice, genetic creation of gilled children for the coming underwater age, and a fortune-telling computer predicting the future and advising humans how to deal with it.[1] The fish-children seem to represent the chillingly unemotional future of humanity.
