danlo, I don't have any q's up my sleeve so I'm happy for DD to continue.

Re the question, it'd probably be a body part, but I cannot remember what!

The Question:
What is it The Bill is rumored to have 2 of and for what reason?
The Answer:
Rumor suggested that he had been surgically provided with a double phallus so that he could penetrate women in both nether orifices simultaneously.
Are we allowed to say that on this web site?

wealthier? hmmm

Angus had nothing. Just his poor old ship.

I suppose Nick, as he got a payment or two for his dealing with the wallopers.

Answer - Angus or Nick

Post by DirectorDios »

The correct answer is, neither....or both. They were nearly equal in their worth. - I quote SRD:

"In a sense, the situation was simplified by the fact that Nick didn't have enough money to repair Bright Beauty. Despite his successful air, he was no wealthier than Angus."

This is from a chapter in the Real Story where Angus is trying to decide what to do with the security and financial information he is getting from the data line he's attached to Captain's Fancy

The correct answer is actually, "Silicon on Diamond"
New question...Lane Harbinger is the tech who did the autopsy on Nathan Alt/Clay Imposs and traced the history of the SOD-CMOS chip used in his attack on the counsel. WHO was her father and what was the discovery that was named for him? - This is a difficult one folks...TWO cookies to whoever can answer this one...any takers?

U got me Director--U have succeeded in driving me utterly mad!!!--but thanks 4 the Gap refresher course! I spent three hours in the last 3 books reading everything on Lane, Hashi, Warden and Konia. But knowing u the answer was prob in The Real Story! I'll take a wild guess and say the Harbinger Drive. I kno I'm wrong but her granpa, Malcomb, was a famous xplorer/scientist. U made me realize, however, that Lane IS prob the coolest and most important character in the series in her own way.

What about Holt and his mom---isn't that just about the sickest thing since Pyscho? :twisted: I never liked Firk anyway...a kaze can make your day...Ok so I don't get any cookies, but I'll ask a Q anyway--this is MUCH simpler: What is the ancient connection between Angus and Marc Vestable?

Vestabule was one of the 20 people that Angus sold to the Amnion in return for the ability to edit datacores. I'm not sure if the ship he was on was called Viable Dreams or if that was Sib's ore-hauler. Answers on a postcard...

Also, I don't have the books to hand, so I can't be sure what Lane's father did, but wasn't it Juanita Estevez who invented the Gap Drive?
