Book excerpt: When a crooked used car salesman invents a perpetual motion machine he is thrown into Science Prison and incarcerated, along with various other inmates who have violated scientific laws; kept in place to prevent such inventions from destroying the economy. In Science Prison our car salesman meets a colorful assortment of other inmates including: a New York model who's been rendered invisible from swallowing a new kind of vanishing cream; two bank robbers that invented a time machine; and a 50,000-mile tall clown from outer space, who's been shrunk down to size. Other inmates in the prison include a 40,000-year-old man who was jailed back in 1910 by terrified doctors; a monk who tried and failed to build a perpetual motion machine, but wanted to go to the prison anyway to meet secret "celebrities"; and Saddam Hussein, who's been jailed for being in two places at the same time. Eventually this misfit band of scientific criminals formulates an escape, only to be pursued by a detective who bears a strong resemblance to Peter Falk's Columbo. Will they get away with it? Find out when What is the Government Doing Now? reaches its dramatic and humorous crescendo.
