[pedant] Was it not Jake who wanted four whole fried chickens and a Coke, with Elwood ordering dry white toast? [/pedant]

Nevertheless, yay to repartee.

For a take on where genetic recreation of dodoes might lead, consider the dodoes in Bill Holbrook's Safe Havens.

Dam-et was implanted in 1994 at about 15 months. He was one of the first three children implanted in the US, with a specialist from the UK doing all three children on the same day.

It has worked very well for him.

This software will either be a great lawyer or need a great lawyer.

Yes, CH.

Your turn.

Yes, Al Stewart...specifically Al Stewart – Almost Lucy Well played, using my clue as a seed for Paul Simon – You Can Call Me Al I went to school in hand-washed shirts with neatly ordered hair And the school was big and newly built and filled with light and air And the teachers taught us values ...

Again, no.

A clue: In the mid-'60s our artist shared a flat in London with Paul Simon...and, yes, Paul called him Al.

Thank you for the answer.

Nope.

IrrationalSanity is correct. The fulcrum of Davies' decision to go to Calm Horizons was learning Warden, not Min (or anyone else), had authored the message that had ordered Angus to show Nick the message (thereby giving Nick the priority codes to control Angus)...but had contained machine language t...

Earlier this week, Forestal posted a PDF version of Karen Wynn Fonstad's Atlas of The Land . There is a lot of material at the back of the book that sheds light on her methodology and how the bulk of the detail she put into her maps and drawings was based on textual analysis. I haven't the cartograp...

It isn't.

I need to flip the classic SRD reference "Give him something broken" on its head. Yesterday's PDF was huge gift, and I honor the giver. I binged half the book that day. Today, to have the so-much-better-resolution version was a "wait, there's more!" for the ages. Not only is the ...

You're headed in the right direction. Davies knows Angus is freed from his priority codes; he was a participant in making that happen. The answer you seek has to do with how and why he was able to do that.

Thank you for posting this. First time actually seeing this book, and it completely deserves its reputation.

I was an early responder to this thread (not my first KW age poll) and haven't changed status. Post count isn't remotely high enough to justify a new thread. Participation would not come amiss...those who have not responded can do so; those who have moved to another tier can so note; and the rest of...

When Warden relays Vestibule's "requirement" for Vector, Morn, Angus, and Davies to be sent to Calm Horizons, Davies is understandably reluctant. What information leads him to agree to go?

Baseball season!

A couple months early, even for spring training, but that's how I remember the routine ending.

The Jedi are not known for much of a collective sense of humor, nu?
