Tim – are you referring to the movie Marooned? There were no stowaways in that movie.

I do recall at least one variant where the astronaut takes the walk instead of his stowaway.

Really late reply, but you can probably find a Cordwainer Smith collection or two with it. It’s in The Rediscovery of Man collection, possibly called The Instrumentality of Man – the collection naming is a bit of a mess, unfortunately.

You wouldn’t happen to know where we can find a copy of Ballad of Lost C’Mell (preferably Kindle or pdf if possible) by any chance, would you? I’d love to read it, but it seems impossible to find a copy anywhere that I have access to.

Your comment makes me want to go watch Bubblegum Crisis once more…

Hot babes + high-tech power armor + berserk robots + cool soundtrack = awesome 80s cyberpunk anime.

Artie kind of implies that it’s been a while.
