Note. \u201cNEMO\u201d means \u201cno one\u201d or \u201cnobody\u201d in Latin, referring to people with no identities, social status or names. \u201cNEMO\u201d has been translated as \u201cpeople without names\u201d by the Oxford Dictionary. This work itself has been inspired by a very short story found in the newspaper. The protagonist\u2019s name is \u201cTaylor Granger\u201d. And the extract of the story is as below:<\/p>\n
\u201cDear Mother and Father, I have gone away to walk aboard an alien ship as recurring dreams assured a 42 month interstellar voyage to explore the vast universe, then return. I am leaving behind all my possessions to you as I will no longer require the use of any. Please use the instructions in my will as a guide to help. Love Granger.\u201d<\/p>\n
In Taylor’s own will he crossed out the word “death<\/b><\/strong>” and replaced it with \u201cdeparture<\/b><\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n According to a local newspaper, the Times Colonist, there was also some sort of map drawn on the back of the note. The significance of it has never been determined.<\/p>\n The same article says Taylor was last seen leaving a local diner, Bob’s Grill, around 6:30 PM. Soon after, Taylor vanished.<\/p>\n Police were called and a search ensued. However, neither Taylor nor his bright pink Datsun truck were found.<\/p>\n “One would expect the car at least to be found,” Cpl. Mike Demchuk of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) told the local paper. “You just don’t get rid of something that large without someone knowing about it.”<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Note. \u201cNEMO\u201d means \u201cno one\u201d or \u201cnobody\u201d in Latin, referring to people with no identities, social status or names. \u201cNEMO\u201d has been translated as \u201cpeople without names\u201d by the Oxford Dictionary.
