Does the boy remember... when he was tricked in to a fabric covered cubicle, rudely yanked out of his native open air, had his running bare feet covered and shackled, thrown into a rat-race with nothing but other running rats, transported daily in cars like cans, and finally thrown into a "virtual world" a 100,000th the size and richness of his previous domain, where managers stare at his reports deciding whether to feed him to the streets?
