Mimsy Were The Borogoves
A pair of rebellious teenagers get hold of an educational toy from the future. Bored with school and disliking the adult world, the brother and sister discover that there may be a way out into some other dimension or time. Lewis Carroll knew of this other dimension and left veiled reference to it in the apparent nonsense poem: 'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves, did gyre and gimble in the wabe. All mimsy were the borogoves.' using the technique taught them by the toy from the future, they vanish from this world into another.
