comparing
a dog with one of my kind? How, how do I say this, droll. There are many
avenues to take reguarding this. Look at the long view here, technology is
constantly improving, we have seen evidence of this in the last five years.
Why, then, would I go through the trouble of having something so crass as a
datajack implanted in my skull. In five years it will be out dated, in a
hundred? Like Mr. Zapper said, "God I hate the technology curve."
So then, what options are left. Rumors about about magic and the matrix, and I
won't go one way or the other. What about those contact rigs? I believe the
colloquial phrase is 'crown of thorns'. Or why not an assistant to post
for him. Let your imagination run wild. Oh, and yes, standard disclaimer.
I speak for myself only, I in no way represent the majority of my
kind.]<<<<<
