This is pretty great. I love the feel of an old American Indian story.

Thanks, all. I got the idea for this from the cover of one of my Native American books. It had stylized bear tracks around the edge, and they looked a bit like vacuum tubes to me, so I resolved to write such a story.
This is the book, in case you want to see for yourself how I made such an odd association:

I love this, a folk tale talking about electronic components is pretty awesome. +1
The Cyberiad, a collection of robotic fables, is one of my favorite science fiction books, and this would fit right in.
