STORYLINE: Katherine, a neurotic American lawyer, has no real friends or lovers, and is very unhappy. So she travels to London, hoping that Christianus -- a well-known satisfactionist -- may be able to help her.

In the course of this philosophy play, Katherine and Christianus discuss many things: the war in Iraq, the meaning of life, the ethics of abortion, WHO death statistics, the personhood of foetuses, ancient Egyptian moustaches, progress in human society, objectivity & subjectivity, Chicago futures trading developments, cryonics technology, a U.S. Supreme Court case, important & unimportant knowledge, and spiritualist dualism (soul-body theories & afterlife) vs. scientific materialism (mind-brain identity & nothingness).
