What was this thing called a stardropper whose use was the rage all around the world? Ostensibly a simple device made from an amplifier, a magnet, a vacuum, a power source and an earpiece. Add it up and you got nonsense - in the form of strange sounds, unintelligible to the human race. But was it "nonsense" that drove people mad, creating an addiction similar to dope? Was it "nonsense" that caused people to disappear off the face of the earth without a trace? Stardropper - a menace to an insane world, or a warning from the stars?
