+Carter held out a hand towards the middle of the room. `See that
+fountain?' A ten-metre-wide marble wedding cake, topped with a
+winged cherub wrestling a serpent, duly appeared. Water cascaded
+down from a gushing wound in the cherub's neck. Carter said, `It's
+being computed by redundancies in the sketch of the city. I can
+extract the results, because I know exactly where to look for them --
+but nobody else would have a hope in hell of picking them out.'
+
+Peer walked up to the fountain. Even as he approached, he noticed
+that the spray was intangible; when he dipped his hand in the water
+around the base he felt nothing, and the motion he made with his
+fingers left the foaming surface unchanged. They were spying on
+the calculations, not interacting with them; the fountain was a
+closed system.
+
+Carter said, `In your case, of course, nobody will need to know
+the results. Except you -- and you'll know them because you'll
+/be/ them.'
