One hundred and seventy-two days was all the separated Clark from happiness. See Clark was born exactly one year before everyone was given the gift of perfect memory. In light of the United States abysmal education rankings Madame President had decided to have every child linked in with BrainBank, the largest memory storage service in the world. 
 
 Well not every child, every child born after June 16, 2022. The cut off had to be somewhere, Clark just happened to be on the wrong side of it. The Forgotten Generation bitches about the troubles that they faced back in the day, but they had nothing on the brainless. Teaching studies performed early adopters of BrainBank had proven its effectiveness, with standardized grades doubling across the board. 
 
 In acknowledgement of this fact universities slowly stopped accepting the brainless as the BrainBank babies approached graduation. I had a 3.5 GPA and did n't get a single acceptance letter. 
 
 But Clark was n't a quitter, he worked two shifts at a local packaging plant until he had saved enough for his own BrainBank. As soon as it was installed he applied to every school that he could think of. Unfortunately at this point every other applicant had hundreds of terabytes of information at there disposal, and one look at his BrainBank account was enough to get him rejected once again. 
 Finally Clark did get accepted, but as a janitor. 
 
 A janitor with a BrainBank. As the days went by Clark realized that his BrainBank was n't like everyone else's. He was n't the only one making deposits. The first time Clark noticed was in a bar fight. He knocked out three people. The next week he realized that he recognized the kinds of guns being used on TV. Just last week Clark found himself doodling the designs for a bomb. Maybe Clark could make use of this new knowledge. Maybe he could finally get back at the administrators that stole his life.
