Did Easy touch that letter?

She's wearing gloves and always is (severe sunlight allergy means she lives
in them).

Paul-

What are those gloves made of?

If you get this stuff on your skin, it should penetrate.

If those gloves are leather, rubber, or even maybe even latex, they
are semi-permeable. You're DOOMed!

If you have a cyberarm, but you wipe your skin (eyes, nose, butt)
or eat anything with that hand, you are also doomed!

Talk to your new boyfreind about getting cured.

He should feel responsible enough to foot the bill.

Good leather.

Ouch.

Easy probably won't even know she's been hit until she dies. That, to coin a
phrase, really sucks.

Hopefully he might actually warn her what's happening to her, or
this is going to be a very short-lived character: eight days from now
she'll be dead.

Ok, personnal bitch here. First of all, I agree with Mark. If Paul doesn't
want Easy to die, she doesn't. If whoever controls Orion doesn't want him
to die, he doesn't either. Secondly, I don't believe that Doom is
transmitted through casual contact because of particle size. And lastly, I
really think it's fragging stupid thing to do. Whoever put the Doom on the
envelope (I believe it was Kor, but won't point fingers with out being sure
of it) had better be a contact god. That stuff is way more than gov't
controlled. And I don't want to hear "he got it through the corp he
controls etc." Thats just munchkinous B.S. No minor player like Serenity
is going to be able to get stuff like that anyway. Now, for the person
controlling Kor/Stormwind, if this isn't how it is, I'm sorry. And if it's
not you, I'm even sorrier. But someone on here decided that they can get
biological weapons, and I think that's just stupid.

I am willing to say that Easy fail to contract a sufficent (sp?) dose
to kill her. (After looking into the real-world science, I will never
use the stuff again, as I could not function as stated in the book.)
