In it, a faster-than-light communicator plays a crucial role in a future society but has an annoying final ''beep'' at the end of every message. The communicator necessarily allows sending of signals backward in time, even when that's not your intention. Eventually, the characters discover that all future messages are compressed into that beep, so the future is known, more or less by accident. Feinberg had set out to see if such a gadget was theoretically possible. }} </ref> <ref name="CERN-2012-06-08"> {{cite press release |title = Neutrinos Sent from CERN to Gran Sasso Respect the Cosmic
