Reggie's Story* * * * * Once upon a time (said Reggie) there was a gathering place for the most extraordinary people in the galaxy. It attracted heroes and bandits, artists and athletes, ministers, geniuses, prostitutes, bounty hunters, gamblers, even aliens. Since I am a robot and haven't been programmed for creativity, let's call it the Outpost for lack of a better name. Unique people came to the Outpost to drink, to tell a story or two, and mainly to mingle with other very special people. It was a haven for them, a place to hide from the mundane and the commonplace, from the fawning adulation and the irrational resentment of the populace at large. And because they were extraordinary people, they sometimes forgot that there was a galaxy of normal people out there, a galaxy that _needed_ the kind of men and women who were drawn to the Outpost. One day an alien fleet entered the system.
