You have 30 days to decided if you want to press The Button. If you do press The Button, you will receive $200,000. But someone you don’t know, and have never met, will die. At that point, someone will come to deliver your $200,000, and will pick up The Button. Then The Button will be given to someone else… someone you don’t know, and have never met…

This belongs in the great short story post from earlier today! Button, Button
On the plus side after a bit you basically just check in once a day on it.
Great, now I’m going to have that theme song in my head for the rest of the day.
Working together as a big bundle of sticks? I seem to remember some people using that metaphor…

An unmeasurable condition.
Actually, Matheson was adapting a story that was at already 150 years old. And it’s been adapted many times since then. My two favorite versions are, of course, from The Twilight Zone, and the version done on the wonderful CBS Radio Mystery Theater, back in the '70s. That was a truly astounding series. Back in the golden age of radio, most scripted dramas were 30 minutes, once a week. But CBS Radio Mystery Theater somehow managed to put out an hour-long show, 5 days a week, week in and week out, with a different story and cast every day.
