Robert H, I like your ideas. You definitely have the right idea about the meta
races. But I think your getting to specific about the look and content of the
tome. You've already decided that there will only be two interviews/articles,
and what will be included. We should wait to see whats submitted before for
we go with any final look. And Robert, the policlub activist is named Helms
-- lets really stay away from current politics or biases (I'm a very moderate
Repub. So I really despise Helms & the God Crew, still . . .)


On the subject of the tech catalog. People, come on, its 2054. Sharper
Image will be a yuppie faded dream by then. Lets give this catalog a name that
IS shadowrun -- like "The Real Edge Catalog, 2054"

Heh. Well, the things I put in it were only things _I_ was interested in
writing, so of course it's not written in stone.

As for the Helms thing, sorry, just my own pathetic attempt at humour. *grin*

Random Thought:

HOW TO PROVE IT, PART 2

proof by cumbersome notation:
Best done with access to at least four alphabets and special
symbols.

proof by exhaustion:
An issue or two of a journal devoted to your proof is useful.

proof by omission:
'The reader may easily supply the details'
'The other 253 cases are analogous'
'...'
