REGISTRATION
Project: NERPS Stuff
Title of submission: Robot Walker Frame
Real name: Patrick E. Goodman
E-Mail Address: remo@***.net
--------
This submission will deal with a robotic exoskeleton used to provide
mobility toparaplegics and quadroplegics who, for whatever reason,
cannot be healed with the medical technology of the Shadowrun era. It
will be a short article, detailing the device itself, the company that
makes it, and some of that company's associated personalities (unless
the company and personnel descriptions would make a better Organizations
article; I leave that decision to the editors).

Will these devices be similar to the ones featured in the Gibson short
story from Burning Chrome?

I've never read anything in "Burning Chrome," since I think William
Gibson is an execrable writer (I got maybe a fourth of the way through
NEUROMANCER and had to throw the book across the room in furstration and
borderline disgust). From the hints you drop, I'm going to have to say,
"I somehow doubt it."

The article should be finished by Monday evening, since I don't have
Monday night football to distract me any longer.

They still play Football, even though Wrestling kicks its butt on a weekly
basis? :-)

Who is thinking about Organization submissions. Like, his complete lack of
Organization.

Yeah, but there aren't as many sports fans as there are drama majors,
apparently.

Who is doing the wrestling if there aren't that many drama majors?

Working in Titan Tower, (WWF Corporate HQ) I can honestly tell you all that
most of these folks couldn't act their way out of a paper bag. Course you
can't quote me on that and all attempts to do so will be vehemently denied.
