Get ready to be beamed across, captain.

Folk always remember where they were, or what they were doing, at times of monumental occurrences. Perhaps you were cheerfully going about your day, greeting everyone you met with a friendly smile; or you were engaged in some kind of ‘war’ that wasn’t of your making.
