The truth was‚ Mr. Libre felt sorry for his wife. He was very careful to hide it from her‚ of course‚ but day by day‚ through the years‚ as he saw her watching the shriveled half-black baby in the bottle‚ he felt more and more sorry for her.

About 16 months after the bottle was dropped‚ Swearingen’s marine science

Similarly‚ biomass converts the sun’s energy into a
