Editor's note: Hello, fellow writers! It seems that Rapaire, who started off this new edition of Chongo Chimp, is busy for the next week with moving. This will necessarily limit his available time for input into the story. Not a problem, because there's no time limit on when we have to finish it, but keep it in mind. Rapaire is providing much of the expertise on the Manhattan Project. We'll all do the best we can in the meantime...
