Note that any unnanounced actions against Gutsys will be summarily
ignored. Keep me up to date, please, or I'll get all in a huff and take
away my toys ;)

As for the manufacturers - I figure they'd be Carib league, MCT and the
real top of the line stuff would be Aztechnology. Gutsys military contacts
are Aztlan (Although this shouldn't be considered public knowledge, it
isn't too dificult to figure out)

Be nice.

Yup. The "Eriq" in that little enigmatic post was "E" from V-12's
crew. For
now, let's say he's a decker with a grudge against mind-raping software. =) And
had some time on his hands waiting for orders.

I spy potential for a side diversion... doubt it'll go near Gutsys at all,
though. This is likely to be aimed at any of his suppliers. The worst
direct effect on Gutsys might be a sudden inability to meet orders, assuming
an improbable degree of success.

Lynch has three sources from Eriq, and intends to check them out. Suggestions
as to what some discreet recce might find?

Okay.

Well, like I said, azzies. They are the most likely producers of this stuff,
because of their ah, thing about sacrifices and so. But ANY military is bound
to have something to do with 'em, in their deep dark recesses like...

And you don't have necessarily to record death experiences to produce them,
so I guess even a small time lab could do it...
