What this line claims
A line from the novel Current Drift (Chapter 14, narration from Amaleto's point of view). It claims nothing about the world. It says why a count of three is too few to call a pattern. Fiction: the characters and events are invented.
A line travels without its footnotes, so the claim and its status are on this page. All lines in this thread.
