Whey Station, by Guy Stewart

Analog Science Fiction and Fact, April 2015; ~500 words
Rating: 2, Not recommended

A short-short, in which a couple renovating an old barn discover mysterious appliances.

Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)

Pro: If you read The Way Station, by Clifford D. Simak, you'll get the joke.

Con: Even if you did read the Way station, it's not much of a joke. You can read the author's explanation for details.
