This very well might turn into a corp war. We've got three corps interested
in Farrelton's stock (including one of mine); plus another (another of mine)
trying to dissolution it...what could happen with one of the Big 8 trying for
the stock is actually prevent a war by dissolving it, and saying publicly
that Farrleton was using black IC that nearly killed a curious child, or some
other thing, and stating that the problem is being handled; making all
parties nice and cozy; but also leaving the possibility of a major corp war
over the pieces...which can be solved by the Corp court acting as "overseer"
of the assests in question.

Why would any corp gives exactly one devil rat's *ss about black IC? Last
thing that I think any of them would do is say "He uses it!" Because that
can only make people snoop around. And sooner or later someone would snoop
in THEIR hallowed halls. That's to say, of course, that anyone could find
black IC in the system now, anyway. With the push of a few buttons and a
matter of microseconds, it's all just really good gray.

And I still don't think that they'd care any more about some 7-year old
criminal-in-training than they would about the IC. They only interest corps
have in black IC is that of new developements. The only interest they'd
have in Flute would be... ummm... well, lemme think... I'll get back to you
when I figure that one out. May take a while.
