This is a storyline I've been thinking about for a while now, just have
been putting it off until I have the time. I should have the time after
finals.

---------

Norman Yoshida has been the head of a team working with installing
cyberware into animals (I alluded to this at the beginning of the Fuzzy
plot). Specifically, dolphins. The goal? To actually talk to the
animals, and also test their innate matrix reflexes. This is VERY high
tech cyber designed in such a way that animals are far less likely to go
bonkers.

The dolphin is stolen for the cybertechnology.

Norm wants his dolphin, his friend, back.

Evil bad dudes are discovered to be using the cyber for some nasty
purpose which the shadow warriors must stop.

In the end, dolphin and world is safe.

Dolphin dude becomes another character.

------

And yes, I had this idea BEFORE SeaQuest, so I didn't steal diddly,
except from the Hitchhiker's Guide, of course :-)

It's my understanding that Howard was a Duck, not a dolphin.

Anyone else have comments on this plot idea? It will be a few weeks
before I can really get into it due to time.

Also need a name for the dolphin.

No, silly... from the Illuminutus! (Exclamation point Robert Anton
Wilson's) Trilogy.
