As it turned out, John had decided to head to the local university. There were lots of different people there, so it would be the perfect place to test out the Reality Tuner.
Heading towards the university, John had spotted a coffee shop at the edge of the campus. In the distance, he saw lots of people walking to and from class. And other people, presumably students, walking in and out of the coffee shop.
Now, who to test it on? he thought. Should he use the device on the people milling about on the campus grounds? Or should he use it on the people in the coffee shop?
