The brilliant mind of Philip K. Dick is once again on display today on the podcast. From the tattered pages of the November 1954 issue of If Worlds of Science Fiction Magazine comes a story that\u2019s starting to sound all the more realistic in the world we live in today, some 69 years after it was written. \xa0

Tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Human nature is unchanging and will probably not change fundamentally for countless ages in the future. We look back now to the days before the automobile and before electricity and the hundred and one other mechanical conveniences that simplify life in so many ways. Just so people of the future will in all likelihood look back on pre-television and pre-flying days and wish themselves back in the exciting days of primitive life. Our well-known author gives us here a thought-provoking bit of literature of scientific interest. The Cosmic Express by Jack Williamson. That\u2019s tomorrow on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.\xa0
