The premise was that Edison's last breath AND his soul were captured in a test tube, which was opened in the recent years by a kid. The kid spent the rest of the book mentally communicating with Edison on various adventures, but I can't remember any details. Not once did it occur to me that there is really a test tube like that, presumably without a soul in it.
Jim Nichol ========================= For those interested in this book, the title is "Expiration Date" and written by Tim Powers. It's a very good read, I might add. And Jim...I very much enjoyed your posts about the Menlo Lab and Ford's residence. Thanks for the great info.
