I suggest that the phenomenon of your gear appearing to go down with a 
'thud', as you put it, was actually a door being opened into a world 
outside 
of this one, beyond this one, running at perpendicular lines to this one.  
A 
time outside of our time.  All electronics would doubtless undergo some 
sort 
of change at that interstice; your own nervous system changed very slowly, 
it 
being more malleable, but the hard-wired gear in your rig resisted until 
it 
could no more, and when it went, it may have made that 'thud'.  Then 
again, 
you may have heard a thud that came from within, or somewhere else.

How do you know you don't already have beachfront property in that world?  
Having an echoplex (to the extent that we can 'have' anything, as loopers, 
much in the same way that I 'have' a cat) certainly facilitates that, and 
speeds that process, but it is not strictly essential.

(a)  Yes, I'm sure they have.
(b)  That Time/Drug Thread -- what a great title!  I'm using it!
