Show Notes

This is the story of an inventor and his invention and its impact on his life. The inventor believed that Negative Gravity would “lighten the burdens of the world.” I’d say our world could use some burdens lightened right now… Stockton likes a good moral, as in “The Lady or the Tiger?” and this story does not disappoint. It is humorous and fun. Something light for the beginning of Summer! Enjoy!
