Student: Sir, sir! Come look at this!
Prof: Yes, what is…. Oh, my goodness! This is unbelievable!
Student: What is it, sir? My power spade just hit it.
Prof: Why, my dear boy, this is a 20th Century artifact! One of the most influential objects ever known to man! Luckily, you did not break it into two.
Student: But what is it? Why is it so important?
Prof: What is it? Well, to tell you the truth, I have absolutely no idea.
Student: Huh?
Prof: Looking at its shape, it is definitely made in the 20th Century. But I suspect it could be an early rendition of a power tool of some sort.
Student: Maybe, it belongs to this person named Gra…….. Graflex. I believe the name was engraved with a laser pen.
Prof: Nonsense, boy! They don’t even have portable lasers at that time. The closest would be those 890nm spectral emitters which they point to walls on images projected from a lightsource.
Student: That is a boring activity, sir.
Prof: Yes, I agree with you. In those days, those who attended such session could easily fall into Alpha state within minutes. Unbeknownst to them they were the origins of the sleep machine which we have today.
Student: Sir, look at the bottom here. It says “3 cells”. What does it mean?
Prof: Maybe it’s the tool’s power requirement, who knows. But this is rare and have never been seen for a very long time. Some even say it’s a myth.
Student: Really? Oh, look. this looks like some charging port, just like my X-1138 flyer
Prof: Yes, it does look like it but how could they tell the future? And here, even the power activator just looked like it came from my vibro-pen.
Student: But looking at this part, it looked like some kind of an aiming system. Maybe this is a portable photon emitter we hear so much about in the 21st Century.
Prof: Yes, you could be right. The barrel looks just like that very weapon made 500 hundred years ago.
Student: Well, I’d like to think it is a weapon of some sort but I have a feeling this crude piece of metal is meant for something else. Maybe it’s a power assisted dental cleaner.
Prof: I was thinking more of a portable sprinkler system of some kind….
Dean: Good God, Jenkins! Be careful with that! It is one of the rarest replica in its time!
Prof: What do you mean, my dear sir?
Dean: According to the ILM myth, this replica is an exercise to show a person’s devotion to the imaginary realm of Jedism. Building one of these replicas require much time spend on the stone-age system called the Internet where one could locate and compete with one another for the right to pay for these objects using an obsolete bartering system through a service called eBay. And sometimes, they would have to participate in a text based communication called a Forum to continue their search. Once they have built the replica, they would undergo a traditional ritual of holding it like a stick and waving it around while uttering words such as “wee-ooooooo”, “Impressive” or even, “Luke, I am your Father”. If I remember correctly, there was one such recorded event from an obscure magnetic media, titled, “Star Battle Boy” or something. The object which you hold in your very hands is a Lightsaber, and you can see its effectiveness from the educational archive titled Star Wars located in Fictional Fantasy.
