Correct!
Your question, Stevie.Dissecting the Ancillary Documentation chapter on Intertech (FK 9), Cord Hurn wrote: Intertech first gained fame creating a microbe that digested plastics (sounds quite useful, indeed), then became a highly profitable company by producing a catecholamine inhibitor, a sedative that became popularly known as "cat".

I will grab a random book to ask a question, but refer to nothing but my memory to answer. Meedless to say, I haven't needed to ask a question very often.Avatar wrote:Haha, yeah, I usually only answer the ones I know...it's very rare that I can be bothered to hunt for an answer. Asking questions however is much more difficult, so there I will usually either check out dissections, or grab a random book and pick something random.StevieG wrote:But since that requires effort in itself, I don't feel guilty about doing that.

Ha! Well, in this last question, I just threw half educated guesses out there - this time I didn't look it up. Was a little surprised I was correct.HBJ wrote:I will grab a random book to ask a question, but refer to nothing but my memory to answer.

I will be back with a question soon.

Close, but not quite. I'll say you're half right, but I won't tell you which half (yet...)Avatar wrote:By putting in further codes that would release him?

Correct!Avatar wrote:Told him to turn himself over to Morn when he had the chance?
--A
More specifically,
The plain text of the message was a command using his access code/name and priority word to show the message itself to Nick. The assumption, proven correct, was that Nick would infer Angus was a cyborg, and he now had the master key to him.
The code embedded in the border was kind like the contract language in "The Santa Clause" - it took binding effect as well, and basically told him to also show the order to Morn at his earliest convenience.
Your question.

Thank you for the offer, but Av's answer was deemed correct; it's his place to pose the next question.
If I wanted to have to develop a new question, I would have put an answer out there when the question was still open, not waited for others to answer...then be too OCD to resist commenting on a minor discrepancy.
