Drag the bed over to stand on, then flip the switch.

You were just doing that a few seconds ago! You could not jump high enough.

You resolve to stop jumping near things that can kill you.

You are totally doing this. Nothing could possibly prevent you from flipping that switch.

Sure. You'll do that. In a minute. Once you're done, umm... totally not freaking out. Yes, that's what you're doing. Originally Posted by Eonart

You manage to get it open just before the inevitable regret overtakes you. Originally Posted by simon.clarkstone

You spend some time staring into the hole as you wonder why you opened it to begin with. The depth of that DARKNESS is beginning to upset you.

Re: Light (Alternate Title: A man, a machine and a very dark place.)
Well... you don't really know the combination for the buttons on the other side of the room. I guess you have no choice but to go down and hope for the best.

That seems like a good idea. You'll do that. Originally Posted by Aranfan

That's... better. You guess.
You position yourself to take the best advantage of both LIGHT SOURCES in the room and examine the buttons. It appears that there are SIX.

As I said. Unless you can figure out the combination (if there IS one) then you might want to do this. Originally Posted by Shailsnic

((A part vector whose last component is integer 0-25 seems familiar, but I can't place it. It's not a Gregorian date, time, or angular co-ordinates. Maybe it is not something we are supposed to recognise after all.))
